Everything That Rises, Collage, 2023

Meikel Church is a North Little Rock, Arkansas based collage/mixed-media artist. Creative writing and storytelling is something that he always strives for in his collage work. Although Meikel considers his work to be auto-biographical, the stories he tells are human stories that allow viewers to see some of themselves and their own experiences. He uses a minimal approach, leaving space to get in there, move around, and discover something for yourself that wasn’t initially intended. The beauty of collage is that every piece starts with an image, then builds, and changes until something that may seem hidden ultimately reveals itself.
