Juror for the show: Meryl Engler

Meryl Engler is an artist using woodcut and collage to create layered prints that evoke intimate, magical human moments, and the hidden landscapes of the environment.  Meryl grew up in Huntington Beach, California, on the shores of the Pacific Ocean.  She attended Syracuse University where she studied sculpture, printmaking, religious studies and history, while also competing on the women’s rowing team.  Next, she went to graduate school at University of Nebraska-Lincoln for studio art with an emphasis in printmaking.  This is where she developed her love of colorful woodcut prints, using layering, pattern and repetition. Meryl moved to Akron, Ohio in fall of 2019 as the Artist-in-residence at Rubber City Prints.  The city’s landscape, people and history continue to inspire her. From watching the foliage and greenery take over the barren, urban landscape of Northeast Ohio to gathering with friends around a fire on a summer night, Meryl is always looking for the magical in the every day.  In 2022 she started working at the Morgan Conservatory and learned Eastern and Western papermaking techniques, now incorporating papermaking into her print work.  She has shown nationally and internationally, notably at Highpoint Center for Printmaking in Minneapolis, and Artlink Contemporary Gallery in Indiana.
