About Marni

Artist Statement
Design and photography are two essential forces in my creative process–each one feeds and challenges the other. I’ve always been attuned to the spaces around me, a sensitivity that was nurtured growing up in the northwest suburbs of Chicago. The city’s urban grid left a lasting impression on me, and I often find myself fascinated how structure and pattern coexist in our environment.

With a foundation in graphic design, my photography delves into my evolving relationship with pattern, texture, and minimalism. I’m drawn to the subtle beauty of the world around me, capturing moments that provoke curiosity. I want my images to leave the viewer wondering, to spark questions about the subject matter and how it resonates with them. In this way, I hope my work becomes a springboard for dialogue, encouraging a deeper engagement with what might otherwise be overlooked.

My current work with alternative processes is an exploration of layering, both literal and conceptual. I’ve taken a more tactile, hands-on approach to my prints, moving away from direct botanical representation. Instead, I lean into a softer, more painterly aesthetic, where abstraction and mystery take center stage. The result is work that is less about depicting the tangible and more about embracing the intangible, inviting viewers into a space of quiet discovery.

Bio
Marni Myers is an interdisciplinary artist and visual alchemist chasing an obscure, dream-like state of minimalistic and imperfect layers. Using the alternative process of cyanotype printing to create quiet discoveries within the photographic image, she reveals her artist’s hand through tactile layered compositions, painterly textures, soft tonal transitions, and loose edges that resist perfection.

Her work has been exhibited in numerous national solo and group exhibitions including D’art Gallery - Denver, CO, SE Center for Photography - Greenville, SC, Decode Gallery - Tucson, AZ and PhotoPlace - Middlebury, VT, amongst others. In addition to her artistic practice, she works as a Creative Director and Graphic Designer. Myers holds a bachelor’s degree from the University of Wisconsin - Madison, and she lives and works in Denver, Colorado.
