Bonnie Maygarden is a New Orleans native, the daughter of musician and historian Ben Maygarden and environmental educator/activist Dinah Maygarden. She is currently an MFA candidate at Tulane University. She is represented by the Martine Chaisson Gallery in the city. Her work approaches paint as both light and mirror. This concept stemmed from explorations with surface and its contradictions: reflection and distortion; form and void; color and light; truth and deception.
