Mary Anna Pomonis is a Los Angeles-based artist whose recent work explores shape-oriented painting, sacred geometry, and the relationship between illusion and objecthood. By disrupting the expected rectangular format, her shaped paintings shift between painting and bas-relief sculpture. Airbrushed gradients create the illusion of volumetric form while remaining physically flat, challenging distinctions between surface and space.

Pomonis has exhibited at institutions including the Torrance Art Museum, Lancaster Museum of Art and History, SUNY Potsdam Art Museum, Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art, and the Western Carolina University Museum of Fine Arts. Her work is held by the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles and the National Theater of Northern Greece, and in 2025 her work entered into the permanent collection of the Krannert Art Museum. She is an Associate Professor of Art at California State University Fullerton.
