About

Melissa Cooke is a young, up-and-coming player on the international art scene. Her powdered graphite on paper works explore themes of beauty, fantasy, violence, and identity, with the artist casting herself as subject in a myriad of thematic scenarios. Her work confronts the viewer, both with scale and stirring reflections of relationships, sexuality and gender. Her drawings are attracting attention from major art galleries, museums and collectors in Chicago, LA and NYC. Cooke is represented by Koplin Del Rio in Los Angeles, CA and Jenkins Johnson Gallery in New York, NY.

MOVED!
For the next three months, the Bemis Center for Contemporary Art in Omaha, Nebraska will be my home.  The studio is my dream quarters: spacious, bright, and full of possibilities.  So excited to start laying down some graphite!
