Come experience a new body of work from Marissa Albrecht in her exhibition "Intersections,” now on view on the LED Wall in the East Entrance of the Center for Arts and Media. Intersections showcases Albrecht's skill and ease in which she masterfully glides from one media to another, playfully exploring the contrasts and parallels between her photography, drawings, and collages.

Marissa is a visual artist that finds excitement in everyday environments and material. Her artwork elevates the ordinary and allows items to be seen for something other than their original function. Marissa yields to what others have expended, altered, or abandoned; from collecting a discarded item, photographing a mundane object, or sketching her nearby environment. Her curation process begins to emerge by relating visual elements from originally unrelated places and materials. No matter how anonymous, her works evoke a sense of familiarity and in turn connect past chance encounters to present opportunities.

Marissa was born and raised in southern California. She pursued her passion when attending college and received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Painting and Drawing from Brigham Young University-Idaho. She also earned a Master of Fine Arts degree from Brigham Young University. Marissa currently teaches as an adjunct instructor at BYU and UVU.
