Music and visual art so often intermix, with one inspiring the other – igniting ideas or simply lingering in the background; music often becomes married to memories of creation and how it felt to create.
 
For the group show Mixtape, we invited 20 visual artists to create just one piece of art with one simple requirement: Name the piece after a song. The song could be one that the artist listened to while making the work, a song that evokes strong memories, or simply a song that the artist is currently listening to on repeat.

To purchase or inquire about any of the work, please email katie@meyervogl.com or call the gallery at (843) 805-7144.
