Melissa Kuntz: Road Trip

Melissa Kuntz’s artwork explores the strange comfort of nostalgia, like how memory edits, brightens, and distorts what we think we know. In her paintings and collages, fragments of mid-century interiors, appliances, and everyday rituals are reimagined with crisp color and uncanny precision. The result feels familiar yet dislocated, like a dream of domestic life directed by design itself. Kuntz’s artistic process balances humor and critique, beauty and absurdity, asking what remains once our modern myths have aged.
