On Friday April 27, five local immigrant rights organizations joined us for the BRIC OPEN: BORDERS Immigration Action Fair. Each organization presented attendees with the opportunity to take immediate and creative action toward justice initiatives for immigrant communities in Brooklyn and beyond.
BRIC is pleased to have Macon Reed as a spring 2018 BRICworkspace visual artist-in-residence. Reed is an artist whose work is illustrated through sculpture, installation, video, radio documentary, painting, pedagogical and participatory projects. Motivated by political issues and human relationships in the queer and feminist community, her work is elaborated by life experiences, developing new relationships and finding ways to support the communities through her art or volunteering. We spoke with Reed to learn more about her practice, process, and recent work.
These past BRIC Media Arts Fellows and BRICworkspace Artists-in-Residence have work on view in exhibitions across New York City and around the world. Check out these exhibitions if you are able.
Aruni Dharmakirthi is an interdisapinlnary artist whose work is inspired by their Sir Lankan and western culture. As a BRICworkspace Artist-in-Residence fellow Dharmakirthi uses the mediums of digital animation and fibers, manipulating family photographs, sourced imagery, and fabric, to make digital and handmade collages. Their work has been featured internationally in exhibitions conveying ideas of memory, place, and identity, centering around the effects of colonization on immigrants who choose to leave their native country.
