About Margot

About Margot

I studied graphic design, printmaking, and fine art and came up in package design and branding. I launched my multi-disciplinary practice after being laid off during the 2008 housing recession. My work merges design, art, and technology and is dedicated to the advancement of non-profits and mission-driven businesses. I live in Chicago, I'm white, queer, trans non-binary, and I use they/them pronouns.

My artwork is a mix of design, painting, printmaking, and collage in traditional 2D formats as well as installation and spatial exploration. This work is fueled by activism, dismantling systems of oppression, queerness, gender, color theory, poetry, and calligraphy.
