About the Item
Mychaelyn Michalec is a textile artist and painter working in Dayton, OH. Her work depicts the
private, awkward, and mundane moments of family life through a medium traditionally
associated with domesticity and craft. The work explores women at midlife and the effects of
motherhood and time on self-identity, the body, sexuality, and family relationships.
By using an industrial tufting gun as well as hand-tufting, Mychaelyn optimizes texture, color and
line, while recognizing the impact of both manual labor and technology on her work. The idea of
modern technology as a disruptor also surfaces among her subjects where compositions show
family members distracted by their electronic devices and seemingly disconnected from one
another. Her work touches on how personal and artistic relationships are mediated through
technology. More poetically, the work is about what we choose to focus on an how those
choices shape our lives.
