About the Artist

---

A native of Western Massachusetts, Mary T. Konieczny is a Los Angeles-based artist whose work depicts organic subjects within ambiguous landscapes, using sketch, marker, and acrylic paint.

Mary holds a Bachelor of Arts from Fordham University and studied creative writing, visual arts, and film at various institutions including Syracuse University London Center, the UCLA Extension Writing Program, and Cooper Union Continuing Education.  Mary has worked in development and production in television, documentary film, and commercials, and worked for over a decade in the Entertainment Marketing Division of Walt Disney Television, working with the Post Production and Operations teams on hundreds of WDT Campaigns for ABC, ABC News, Hulu, Freeform, FX, Searchlight Pictures, National Geographic, ESPN, Disney+, and Disney Corporate. 

Inspired by her career in film, television, and commercial marketing, the series Pop Concessions magnifies images of food featured throughout popular culture, exploring how images of food can harness an audience’s relationship with media, initiating a sense of idealism, consumerism, and nostalgia. The Pop Concessions Series can be viewed here.
