Meet Michelle Fox

WHAT INSPIRES YOUR WORK RIGHT NOW?

Right now, my art is inspired by interior design. Textures, color palettes, and the way spaces make you feel. I’m drawn to how art can complement or transform a room.

 

HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN A PIECE IS FINISHED?

It’s more about a feeling, once the vibe feels complete.

 

IN ONLY A FEW WORDS, HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?

Layered and bold

 

DID ANYTHING SHIFT OR SURPRISE YOU WHILE CREATING THIS COLLECTION?

Absolutely, some pieces and colors used took unexpected turns which is the beauty of the process.

 

WHO ARE SOME ARTISTS (PAST OR PRESENT) WHO INFLUENCE OR INSPIRE YOU?

Robert Rauschenberg was my first true art crush, I can’t wait to visit his compound in Captiva, FL one day 

 

WHAT MATERIALS OR TECHNIQUES DO YOU MOST ENJOY USING, AND WHY?

I enjoyed working with the cold-pressed paper made in France for this collection. The raw edges are the cherry on top! 

 

STUDIO SOUNDTRACK: SILENCE, MUSIC, OR PODCASTS?

I rocked out to a lot of 80s classics during this collection, the Cure, Simple Minds, The Police, Toto
