ARTISTS IN (THEIR) RESIDENCE: LACHELL WORKMAN
————
Over the past year, we’ve been catching up with 2018-2020 Queens Museum Studio Program artists through our Artist in (their) Residence series. We are excited to present this new video by Lachell Workman, which includes a glimpse into both the artist’s meditative and research-based practice at home and shifting back into her studio space at Queens Museum this Fall. Workman’s practice explores the cultural iconography of memorial T-shirts, rituals of collective mourning and memorializing in Black and Brown communities, and the relationship between the body and the inner city landscape.
El año pasado les seguimos la pista a lxs artistas de la edición 2018-2020 del Queens Museum Studio Program con nuestra serie Artist in (their) Residence (“Artista en (su) casa”). Estamos encantadxs de presentar este nuevo vídeo de Lachell Workman, que incluye una visión del trabajo basado tanto en la reflexión como en la investigación de la artista, en su casa y en su estudio en el Queens Museum este otoño. El trabajo de Workman explora la iconografía cultural de las camisetas de memoriales, los rituales de duelo colectivo y conmemoración en las comunidades Negras y Morenas, así como la relación entre el cuerpo y el paisaje interior de las ciudades.
