About the Item

Dynamic abstract portrait by contemporary Houston-based artist Margo Lunsford. The piece features a central fractured image of a figure with their arms crossed above their head. Signed by the artist on the reverse. Currently hung in a black frame. Dimensions Without Frame: H 33.75 in. x W 33.75 in. Artist Biography: Margo Lunsford-Chacon, born alongside an identical twin within a dynamic Caucasian-Hispanic American family, delves deeply into the complexities of multiracial identity. Her artistic sensibility is molded by the rich tapestry of her heritage, navigating the dualities of connection and alienation. The adversities of mental illness, trauma, and addiction in her early life have fueled her creative journey, transforming personal strife into artistic brilliance. Lunsford-Chacon honed her craft at the Glassell School of Art and Houston Baptist University's painting program, where she was profoundly influenced by her mentor, Michael Roque Collins. Collins encouraged her to dismantle her emotional defenses and infuse her art with a resonant spiritual depth. His mentorship helped forge her unique artistic voice, marked by themes of fragmentation and renewal, and an unflinching examination of the human condition. Her art serves as a powerful medium for transformation, challenging viewers to explore and resolve their internal contradictions. Her pieces are more than visual representations of memory and identity; they are catalysts for deep self-reflection, inspiring courage, acceptance, and transcendence. Beyond her artistic endeavors, Margo Lunsford-Chacon leads a life filled with passion and adventure, shared with her devoted husband. With a 16-year career in digital design, she seamlessly blends art with technology, utilizing human-centered design principles to enhance digital user experiences. Through her art and professional work, she invites us all to explore the rich complexity of our identities and the deep-seated beauty of our collective human experience.
