Carla Weeks (b. 1985) is a British-born painter and muralist based in Midcoast Maine. Informed by her personal interactions with both the natural landscape and built environment, she utilizes abstraction to navigate through the physical and emotional experience of place. Employing a distinct shape vocabulary to formally explore color relationships, her paintings articulate the shifting nuances of sensory memory.
A self-taught painter, Weeks holds a BA in Art History and a professional background in design that informs both her painting practice and multidisciplinary collaborative projects. She has shown work in Philadelphia, New York City, and across New England.
