Megan Sinnett’s current work revolves around the practice of large-scale oil and encaustic portraits. She is particularly interested in the notion of ‘type’ as it relates to representation of the human face. She’s explored varying typifications through the “Re-re-enactment: Invention of Hysteria” series, and her current series on missing children, which is still in the works.
Megan recently graduated from the Ontario College of Art and Design with a BFA, and plan to pursue my MFA in the near future. Her art has been exhibited in artist-run, commercial, and public galleries across Ontario, including the OCAD Gallery, Spin Gallery, Gallery 1313, and Xpace. Megan has won numerous awards from institutions including the Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition, OCAD, and the Mississauga Arts Council. Click here for more info…
