Artist Bio
Mei Shibata's art is a vivid exploration of color and perception, blending her diverse experiences and expertise into each piece. Born in Tokyo, Mei was influenced by Japan's rich cultural and artistic tapestry before her academic pursuits took her to Boston and a successful professional career in New York. Her background in physics and medicine informs her appreciation of how the brain interprets hues and light, rendering her art both intellectually intriguing and aesthetically captivating. With a history of leading creative and strategy teams at top NYC advertising agencies, and having launched her own, Mei’s work is a celebration of vibrant colors that bring instant joy to any space, yet invites deeper contemplation upon closer inspection. Most often, Mei uses acrylic paints on a square canvas and produces her works in her Manhattan or Bahamas art studio.
