Meaghan Sweeney is a multidisciplinary artist originally from the United States and currently based in Turin, Italy. Her work spans painting, embroidery, video, and digital collage, and explores memory as both subject and medium — touching on themes of nostalgia, trauma, femininity, and overconsumption. Through layered processes that merge tactile craft with digital techniques, she examines the tension between strength and softness, technology and nature, personal history and public image.
She is currently developing three interrelated series of mixed-media paintings: Lenzuola rooted in floral motifs and individual reflection, Cape Cod exploring consumerism and familial heritage, and 2 large format works investigating abstraction, time, and sound (inspired by Brian Eno and the visual rhythm of Koyaanisqatsi). All three bodies of work explore emotional memory, cultural repetition, and the blurred lines between the real and the re-lived. Meaghan will take these themes with her into her upcoming residency at Art Sharm in Egypt this September
