Detail of Las Hermanas Iglesias sculpture
Featured here is a list of curatorial projects, including solo curated exhibitions, co-curations, and projects which I served as organizing curator–from coordinating artists, to selecting work, to designing the exhibition, etc. I’d also like to acknowledge the invaluable support from Keeton Foreman on fabrication and installation for projects from 2015-2019 and additional consistent support form Alan Weissling. Shout out to Dom Jimenez and all those who have played a role in realizing these projects, and Paul Seeman on projects since 2020. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
