Meredith Marsone, a distinguished New Zealand artist, is renowned for her compelling contributions to the 'disrupted realism' movement, a novel fusion of realism and abstraction in contemporary painting. Her works, characterized by their emotional resonance and technical finesse, have garnered international acclaim, securing her a prominent place in private and esteemed collections globally. Marsone's artistry is celebrated in the seminal book "Disrupted Realism" by John Seed, highlighting her alongside 37 other influential artists worldwide. Her unique approach, blending meticulously crafted figures with abstract elements, invites viewers to explore the nuanced spectrum of human emotions, echoing her philosophical exploration of 'oneness.' The technique is more than aesthetic; it's a visual narrative of connectivity and the illusory boundaries of the self, as Marsone articulates the profound interconnectedness of individuals and their environments. Esteemed for her evocative oil paintings, Marsone has been honored with numerous accolades, including the First Prize at The Lysaght Watt Art Award 2015. Her work has been a focal point in prestigious solo and group exhibitions globally, with notable shows at the Exhibitions Gallery Wellington, The Millennium Public Art Gallery, and Corey Helford Gallery in Los Angeles.Residing in Foxton, New Zealand, Marsone continues to enchant and engage through her open studio and gallery, welcoming art enthusiasts to immerse themselves in her visionary world. Her oeuvre not only captures the viewer's gaze but also ignites introspection, making every piece a gateway to personal and collective reflection.
