2019 newness!

NYC coming your way this week…
presenting new work as part of the group exhibition Refiguring The Future, opening on Friday, February 8, from 6pm – 8pm at 205 Hudson Gallery.

this new work – “markings” emerges as performative impressions that center disabled and Deaf folx through an intersectional lens. Resisting pervasive notions that erase disabled and Deaf bodies from conceptions of the future, i seek to reflect how these communities can and will occupy space as we evolve as a society. in addition to a floor piece that will be created in real time, a video collaboration with Deaf Spectrum will be exhibited in ‘conversation’ with the floor markings. the video features Nur Abdulle signing as a linguistic expression of mark-making.
