EXHIBITIONS
2026 MADE THE USA, Garner Arts, Garnerville, NY
MADE THE USA is an immersive solo exhibition in 18,000 square foot industrial space. It brings the series MADE THE USA and RESILIENCE together that ask viewers to consider what takes root in a nation and what grows from those roots. Along with giant tapestries, there is video, sound and smell. The video ties the exhibition together by asking a question.
MADE THE USA consists of five monumental cross-stitch tapestries depicting crops that helped build the United States. The work examines the contradiction that the wealth generated by these crops helped make American independence possible while also depending on systems of enslavement and exploitation. The installation asks viewers to confront difficult questions about national history:
What does it mean to celebrate 250 years of the United States?
What grows from dehumanization?
How do we move forward?
RESILIENCE offers a response through the image of a dandelion growing through asphalt. The dandelion becomes a symbol of persistence, survival, and hope—the ability to take root and move toward light despite difficult conditions.
Together, the two works invite reflection on both historical truth and collective possibility. The exhibition encourages viewers to acknowledge the nation's roots while considering a future built through resilience, community, and honest engagement with the past.
The video concludes with the central question:
"What will we grow from here?"
This ties the two installations together—linking the historical roots explored in MADE THE USA with the hopeful resilience represented by the dandelion.

Bending the Arc was a national juried exhibition featuring artwork that explores the complexities of human values, such as respect, empathy, integrity, and moral courage. The title is drawn from an idea referenced by Martin Luther King, Jr., that “the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.”
The twenty-five artists in this exhibition span a wide range of practices, working in sculpture, digital media, painting, and printmaking. Each engages with the theme in their own way: some present abstract works that convey tension or transformation; others take a narrative approach to illustrate hope or destructive forces; still others use metaphor or symbolism to express their reckoning with the world.
These works were selected through an open call by juror Claire Koelling, an arts professional based in New York City who currently serves as Senior Exhibitions Manager at Gagosian Gallery.
