Artist’s Bio
Flax has a BA in English from Heidelberg College and an MA in Speech & Theater from the University of Michigan. She has worked in theater, film, and, for the past 20 years, in marketing and communications.

When she moved to Cape Cod in 2013, Flax revived a technique of representational collage that she originally developed in her twenties.

She uses her art-making as a lens through which to view her beautiful surroundings, in varying degrees of representation and abstraction.
