ABOUT THE ARTWORK
My work takes place in a dreamworld where suffering transforms femme bodies into a monstrous size, so that their pain must be seen, felt, and reckoned with. In this painting, three giants are claiming a real rural bar in Door County, Wisconsin. Poppies surround the building like fire. The title of this painting comes from a Sylvia Plath poem. Strangely and sadly, after this painting was made, the bar featured in the painting burned down. Because the title proved prophetic, I made a limited edition print (now closed) and raised $4,000 for the victims of the fire. The original is now for sale.

Meg Lionel Murphy
United States
Artist Meg Lionel Murphy’s paintings are informed by debilitating PTSD from severe domestic violence. Over the past few years, she has compulsively painted heartbroken femmes that magically grow larger, stronger, and scarier than the world around them. As the paintings grow in number, she grows just a little larger, stronger, and scarier too. Meg works from rural Wisconsin. She splits her time painting between a little blue shack in a junkyard and the storefront artist collective, The Yellow Room.
