New Art Opportunity!

I've been tapped by the producer of the Queens Art Festival and Queens Council on the Arts to join a team of four artists to create a multidisciplinary exhibition that imagines a world where artists re-make U.S. Health Care policy. The piece would likely feature a mixed-media installation with diverse components (e.g. music, photographs, performance, etc.). The Queens Art Festival is this June. I haven't met the other artist's yet, but I'm looking forward to the collab!
