Conceptual Materials Social Practice Artist
I was recently reading an artist statement, where the artist described themselves as post-disciplinary.
Huh? I had to look it up…
Post-disciplinary focuses on the institutional aspects of academia and rejects the need for an organizational division of disciplines.
As a self taught artist, without an MFA, I guess that makes me post-disciplinary too.
Please join me for my artist talk on Governors Island at Art Crawl Harlem House, 406B Colonels Row on August 6th at 12:00pm.
This will be the last time to see me before my move to St. Croix USVI.
My head is exploding with ideas….

What happens when vintage silk ties and woven onto a metal dress form and adorned with a zip tie blanket tunic… protection from the patriarchy.
I am excited to share that I am The Delaware Contemporary’s 2023-24 Discover Space Invitational Artist. Workshop and artist talk schedule to follow
Free Your Mind; will be installed in the Discover Space, The Delaware Contemporary accompanied by seasonal programming to drive audience engagement utilizing multiple modalities to interact with this project. Visitors connect and find meaning through active experience.
Free Your Mind is a collection of personal narratives. Participants are invited to share a personal experience with implicit bias to release this story from their personal narrative. Shared statements are later converted from text to speech and played back in the installation environment. Motion sensors trigger recordings and text projections that intensify as participants move closer toward the blanket of ribbons.
“There’s no limit to the things that you can do.”
I’m tickled pink!
My installation work Blackty Black Blanket will be included in 2023, Surface Design Journal’s Eighth Annual International Exhibition in Print: Lasting Impression selected by Guest Juror Lorna Hamilton-Brown.
Thank you, April Tracy for taking these photos, guest Juror Lorna Hamilton-Brown and Surface Design for the opportunity to share this work.
