Meg Pohlod is a print artist based in the Bay Area. She is a Printmaking Faculty at Laney College in Oakland, California. Prior to teaching she was the Artist Residency Manager at Kala Art Institute in Berkeley, California. She received her MFA in printmaking from the University of Alberta in 2017. Her visual research examines the body as interior and exterior space; questioning what happens with memory attached to trauma of abandonment when triggered by image, place and time. Pohlod has exhibited work, and been a visiting artist nationally and internationally. When she is not printing in the studio she is enjoying walks with her chihuahua Rupert and partner Max. She is currently working on an international collaboration project with artist and educator Heather Leier.
