Megan Reilly is an experimental photographic artist and fabricator challenging the American belief system and notions of reality. She explores the intersection of religion, culture, and technology, examining the ways in which these seemingly disparate realms interact and intersect. She uses photographic and optical based mediums as a tool to anchor the invisible and intangible, revealing the hidden forces that exist between these different worlds, human behavior, and the strength of perception. .
