Curatorial      
First I was Afraid, I Was Petrified. . . ,Treasure Town, co-Curated with Frances Chang, Brooklyn, NY.
Dec 2018 - Jan 2019

First I was Afraid... was an immersive exhibition that took place at Treasure Town, a catacomb-like art space in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. In this labyrinthine basement, the show wove together the work of artists using a wide variety of media through an underlying theme of dreams, darkness and the subterranean. Each room in the basement was dedicated to one artist’s work, creating their own distinct environment and atmosphere. At 8:30 pm of opening night, the audience was guided through a series of performances that traveled through the entirety of the space.
Artists and performers: Carlo D'Anselmi, Matt Bachmann, Sophia Treanor, Hannah Mitchell, Theo Koeppel, Cornelia Barber, Tirzah Brott, Ken Weathersby, Rosie Lopeman, Frances Chang, Morgan Vo, Sam White, Rachel Pearl Stuart, Rosie DuPont. Link to video of closing night performances.
