From the museum: Nan Coffey is a San Diego based artist with a background in animation. She has developed a stylized design aesthetic and freeform methods to promote connectivity, inclusivity, and love while drawing inspiration from her childhood obsessions with cinema, music, television, and pop culture. Her style, which she calls “Art All Over,” makes use of surfaces that extend beyond the traditional canvas. In her signature bold and dynamic designs, she takes advantage of the entire surface of her chosen canvas, at times painting motifs that span hundreds of square feet.
