Max Paulin is a multimedia fine artist living and working in Minneapolis MN. His work expands into realms of installation, painting, and sculpture using the background of drawing as an anchor through which the work appears as a cohesive body. Experiences with grief and its processing serve as the core investigation, exploring its structures and perspectives in order to build different avenues of acceptance. He currently attends the Minneapolis College of Art and Design, and has appeared in multiple group shows in the Twin Cities Area over the past two years.
