MEY

MEY was born of the idea that contemporary art is a communal endeavor. That is, a living record of stories both familiar and unknown that is meant to be shared. We believe that art does not exist in a vacuum; rather, artworks and the stories they both possess and prompt increase in power as they are circulated. MEY aims to bring those passionate about art into a space where they feel empowered to engage earnestly with work being made by rising artists today. Founded by two women determined to help dispel some of the art world’s elusivity, MEY seeks to build a community; a community that upholds the belief that art is inherently a series of exchanges—from artist to artwork, artwork to viewer, and so on. Fostering curiosity and connection, we ask: art is not sterile, so why should it be?
