"Exploring Our Connections" 2024 New Jersey Arts Annual
Pleased to be included in this year's New Jersey Arts Annual at Montclair Museum in Montclair, NJ. I will be exhibiting "First Vaccine."
Sponsored by the New Jersey State Council on the Arts, this unique juried exhibition brings together the innovative work of 61 artists and is part of a series highlighting visual artists across the state.
For this richly varied exhibition, the jury reviewed more than 1000 submissions and selected 63 recent works created since 2022, that explore past and present themes of family, community, and belonging, in relation to identity, diversity and inclusion. Conceptually and stylistically diverse, these works in multiple mediums embody exceptional craftsmanship, inspire creativity, and entice the viewer to take a closer look.
The Works on display prompt a variety of questions, including perhaps the most important one of all: How do we understand different ways of experiencing the world around us in order to foster communities and form a more just and equitable society?
This show is juried by Philemona Williamson, Kimberly Callas, and Todd Caissie. Coordinated by Chief Curator Gail Stavitsky.

BODY FREEDOM FOR EVERYBODY
After more than a year of planning, Project for Empty Space is pleased to present the BODY FREEDOM FOR EVERY(BODY) cross-country exhibition tour taking place inside of a 27-foot box truck. Join me on Tuesday, September 10th, 2 - 8pm, at Championship Plaza in Downtown Newark, NJ (Edison Place between Broad and Mulberry) when the Exhibition comes to town!
This project is a celebration of intersecting issues pertaining to bodily autonomy such as Reproductive Justice, Queer Liberation, and Trans Joy! This campaign emerges as a response to a relentless wave of conservatism that continues to politicize queer liberation and restrict reproductive and gender-affirming healthcare. The overarching message of this program is broadening awareness of the right to safe, legal, and accessible health care that allows people to LIVE IN THEIR POWER AND CHOICE!
The truck stop is presented in collaboration with Planned Parenthood of Metropolitan New Jersey!

Water and Dust
Water and Dust
A new exhibition at Artsy.net
Curated for the Spliced Connector Group by Karen Fitzgerald
"All our efforts are dust in the wind of time, but look how that dust catches the light, look how it settles on things and softens their angles, bringing seemingly disparate surroundings into harmony. " *
The continuum of energy in our metaphysical world mirrors that within each of us. Artwork explores the myriad ways in which these energies interact, coalesce, and reform.
As creatures of land, we traverse water: wading, swimming, boating. We are infused with water, and intimate with the moisture in air. Yet we are not at home in water; the vast oceans contain a definitive otherness. Water has long served as a symbol for the spiritual nature of the physical earth, an otherness at home in its fluid nature. It is elemental. A section of the Zodiac contains three water signs. Associated with the intuitive, emotional sides of human beings, they influence sensitivity as well as psychic abilities. Water and dust form a pair that bind us within the physical world. They also beckon to our hearts and minds considering what is beyond this physicality.
In a poem ruminating on belief, Denise Levertov wonders if light might nourish. It begs a larger question: how are our minds (and selves) nourished? What are the combinations of nutrients needed on a regular basis? Not just calcium, potassium or iron; but light and energy; water and dust. This question of nourishment goes to the heart of need. Our bodies decline if improperly nourished. Our selves (heart, mind, emotions, souls) do the same. We wither in a landscape that is only physical.
In this collection of work, disparate from each other as water is from dust, the artists of Spliced Connector group present work that also ruminates on belief. When we leave this physical place, we can't take water or dust with us. What we may take is the energy we've each received from our experiences with the visual language. Give this gift to yourself: engage. Think; feel. Where there's water, there's dust; where there's artwork there's transformation and sublimation.
Are some intricate minds
nourished
on concept,
as epiphytes flourish
high in the canopy?
Can they
subsist on the light,
on the half
of metaphor that’s not
grounded in dust, grit,
heavy
carnal clay?

"Artistic Muscles"
"Artistic Muscles: Summer Theme Show"
Juried by Christina Massey
July 11- August 4
Opening Reception: July 11, 5-7pm
440 Gallery is proud to announce the 2024 Summer Theme Exhibition, Artistic Muscles, juried by Christina Massey, featuring 25 artists selected from a national call. This showcase of contemporary, multimedia works celebrates the artist as athlete and creator. Exercising the athleticism inherent in artmaking, this exhibit presents the physicality and discipline behind artistic creativity.
From 1912 to 1952, the Olympics awarded 151 medals for painting, sculpture, architecture, literature and music, alongside those for athletic competition. Celebrating this history, we will look at art as an athletic feat, stretching creative muscles. Artistic Muscles is a fun exploration of the deep intersection of sport and art — relating the depiction of athletic feats to the physicality of artmaking. These works exemplify the emotional high of achievement, while comparing it to the sportsmanship of competition.
Massey writes:
“The concept of Artistic Muscles was inspired upon discovering that Olympics had given awards for achievements in the Arts. Despite the stereotype of artists being unathletic, many artists play sports, enjoy them or are quite athletic in their artistic process, relying on the body's ability to create their work. Selected works range from representational to abstract and showcase a wide variety of traditional sports from basketball, running and swimming to the exercises typically associated with creative types like dance and yoga. Some works focus on the muscles or bones themselves, while others show the brain as the ultimate creative flex. Throughout the show, you'll also notice several works that feature gold, silver and bronze tones as a nod to the Olympic awards.”
Artists chosen for the show:
Fred Bendheim, Jocelyn Benford, Stacey Billups, Tanner Bosma, Nell Breyer, Elizabeth Caputo, Jeffrey Chuang, Patricia Dahlman, Stephen Dinsmore, Eric Eickmann, Veronique Gambier, Stephen Gay, Tom Hecht, Isabelle Heldenfels, Jessica Lambert, Matt Logsdon, Barbara Lubliner, Katrina Majkut, Caroline McAuliffe, Shae Nadine || SubtleFlux, Jo Ophardt, Katie Petersen, Haley Pisciotta, Lola Simon, and Ward Yoshimoto
Christina Massey is an artist and independent curator with over a decade of experience in curating exhibitions that focus on and highlight underrepresented, female artists. In 2016, she founded WoArt, a platform dedicated to promoting the work of female-identifying artists through social media and curated exhibitions.
Her curatorial projects have been displayed in prestigious venues such as the Hunterdon Art Museum, Court Tree Collective, BioBAT Art Space, ISE Foundation and Cluster Gallery, among others. Her projects have been featured in notable publications, including Artnet News, Visionary Projects and ABC News.
As an artist, Massey’s work has exhibited extensively in the NYC metropolitan region. She has won multiple awards for her work that most recently include a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant in 2023, an FST StudioProjects Fund Grant, a Brooklyn Arts Fund Grant and a SIP Fellowship at the EFA Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop.

"View from the Easel" in Hyperallergic
My studio is at Project for Empty Space in Newark, New Jersey. Recently I have been reworking old forms to make new sculptures. The old forms are made from canvas and stuffing, usually wired and sewn together. I rework these forms, cover them with bright colors of fabric, and then sew the different forms together. A finished sculpture may have gone through many incarnations.
The smaller works in the foreground represent a home under construction. Dad is talking on his cell phone, Mom is relaxing on the couch, a gay pride flag flies outside, a child is sleeping in a different room and a cat strides through the house amidst works of art. All of these pieces can be wrapped up and snapped together within the white rectangle they are placed on, to make it a traveling home.
The canvas rectangles with drawings, that are hung on the wall, are sewn drawings that I am working on. I take photographs from my home neighborhood or of downtown Newark and work from the photographs to make drawings on the canvas. I then use both pencil and thread to complete these sewn drawings. These sewn works are a slow process and may take weeks to complete.
