After twenty five years of making prints and teaching teenagers, my practice records the people and places of my tribes, and our shared world. They taught me that I am the stranger in the strange land, but took me in anyhow.

A.I.M.
Art in Movement • Art is Matter • Andedan ici Mwen • Activism is Movement • Ahora imagina Movimiento • Acabamos iniciar Machetes, Art in Miami…etc

The A.I.M Biennial is focused on site specific installations through out South Florida, by local practitioners, that responds to the historically layered landscape, landmark locations, urban vernacular architecture, Everglades and diverse communities. Installations are ephemeral in temporal pieces; abandoned warehouses, buildings, parks, rivers, with an emphasis on ritual, monuments and shrines.  The economy of the materials are key in addressing the tenor of our times; social political impact of polarized Racial dissent, Police brutality, political, emotional and economic of Covid-19. A.I.M is a platform and outlet for responding, meditating, healing and transcending collectively.

A.I.M asks the artists to challenge themselves and work outside their studios. For their work to be engaged in a form of infinite exchanges with the public and landscape.

All work is documented by the artists and presented on the A.I.M website. A tabloid supplemental newspaper with map and synopsis of all works will be distributed free to the public. A bound catalogue will be published posthumously.
