Residency at International Museum of Surgical Science
2023.3.9
I'm very pleased to announce my participation in the Artist in Residence program at the International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) in Chicago, a rich environment for deepening my artistic practice, and for creating a platform for connection around healing. IMSS is the perfect place to further develop and implement my series Mend, allowing us to reflect together on universal ideas of mending, restoration and adaptation. Please be on the look out for how you can contribute domestic objects for creative, non-functional mends to the project this spring, and for future exhibition details.
The IMSS Artist Residency Program
provides artists with extended and in-depth access to artifacts from
its collection, working space within the Museum, and support to present
exhibitions that introduce additional perspectives to the institutional
depiction of medical history. As artistic practice occupies an
increasingly pluralistic field, The International Museum of Surgical
Science believes that artists are uniquely equipped to extrapolate on
Museum collections in innovative ways. Artists-in-Residence present a
capstone exhibition at the end of their residency.
