Akin Instagram Takeover - Linds Miyo, Nov. 3, 4 & 5 - @akinprojects
Self-taught artist Linds Miyo is a Canadian abstract painter. Born and raised in California, her work strives to evoke the strong, direct light of her childhood. A trauma survivor, Linds is interested in the balance between intention and that which is beyond our control, the meeting place between our best efforts and happenstance. She often uses broad representational panes of textured black in her work, washing layers of colour over top - folding the dark relief of the past into multi-dimensional present-day, with honesty, intimacy, and happiness. In studio residency at Akin AutoBLDG (formerly the Akin Studio Residency at the Museum of Contemporary Art Toronto) since 2019, Linds has shown her work at galleries and art fairs internationally. Upcoming shows include Visionary Art Collective, Brooklyn, as well as Toronto (details to come). You can find Linds’ available work online at Partial.Gallery, Peggy, and Saatchi Art. Linds also enjoys curation, and plans to open an artist-run centre in the future.
Find out more about Linds’ work on her website, through partial gallery, and on instagram
