April Street (born 1975) is an American artist acclaimed for painting and installation art. Street is known for her paintings where she begins with a private act of wrapping her body in swathes of fabric, and then choreographing herself dipping into various pools of paint.[1] She then covers her canvases with paint-streaked hosiery fabric, like flesh over bone, that exist in a plane between sculpture and painting, similar to artists Louise Bourgeois, Eva Hesse, and Carolee Schneemann.[2][3]

Work

A Los Angeles-based artist, whose work has been exhibited throughout Southern California and internationally. Street studied bronze casting in Cortona, Italy and painting at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.[4] Referencing history, exploration, mythology, and art history, Street's works combine the material experimentation of Second-wave feminism with allusions to the theatricality, illusionism, and palette of 17th-century Dutch still-life painting.[5][6] Street has had solo exhibitions at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, the Underground Museum, and Vielmetter Los Angeles.[7]
