Artist Talk: Kameelah Janan Rasheed

Kameelah Janan Rasheed is a Brooklyn-based artist and learner from East Palo Alto, California. In her work, she is interested in how proclamations of certainty, containment, and coherence assert themselves through language, institutional structures, and architecture. Rasheed makes her inquiries visible through an ecosystem of iterative and provisional projects including sprawling, Xerox-based “architecturally-scaled collages,” interactive publications, large-scale text banners, digital archives, lecture-performances, library interventions, poems/poetic gestures, and other forms yet to be determined.
