Alison Byrnes
Alison Byrnes is a American artist who teaches at the Srishti School of Art, Design, and Technology in Bangalore, India. She came to WSW on an Artist’s Book Residency to produce Scientific Theories Once Widely Believed, Since Proven Wrong, a colorful silkscreened romp through 10 early modern scientific failures. Alison draws from the style of Indian miniature painting and medieval illuminations to convey historical narratives in a quirky, anachronistic style. Alison holds an MFA and a museum studies certificate from University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.
