“For the new year, I spent my first three weeks of January as an Artist in Residence at SPACE Gallery, upstairs in their residency room. This was my second time being awarded this residency after applying for their BIPOC Rent Free Studio + Residency Program in 2022, and again in the Fall of 2024. I feel so grateful to have been selected for a second year, and what a special thing it is to be able to return to a place.”
