History

McGrath was born in Los Angeles and raised in Echo Park and Altadena, California. Her mother is an immigrant from Singapore. At the age of 13 she was sent to a Fundamentalist Baptist correctional institution called the Victory Christian Academy, and credits that for much of the inspiration for her artwork.

McGrath began her career in art by making flyers for her punk band Tongue and creating a fanzine called Censor This , a collective effort with several other artists. McGrath is self-taught and has been represented by L.A. galleries such La Luz de Jesus and Corey Helford Gallery. [3] Her first showing was at La Luz de Jesus Gallery in Hollywood.
