About the Artists
Lacey Black is an artist from Pittsburgh, PA, who employs painting as a technology to create pictorial thoughts that the senses may perceive outside of linear language, space, and time. Inspired by world-building in speculative fiction, Black likens paint to the imaginal cells of the butterfly, and painting as an organ that imagines new futures within ostensibly fixed systems. She received an MFA from SUNY Purchase College State and a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. Recent exhibitions include PS122 Gallery (New York, NY), Richard and Dolly Maass Gallery (Purchase, NY), and Monya Rowe Gallery (New York, NY). Black was awarded a 2024 residency at Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. The artist lives and works in Mt. Vernon, NY.
Dominique Muñoz is a Guatemalan-American visual artist whose practice spans photography, printmaking, performance, and installation. Rooted in personal and familial history, Muñoz explores the entanglements of assimilation, queerness, and cultural resilience, and examines how photography functions as both an archive and an agent of power, challenging its colonial and heteronormative histories, subverting portraiture into a site of resilience. He earned his MFA in Studio Art from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and his BFA in Photography and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. He was awarded the 2025 Denis Roussel Fellowship at the Center for Fine Art Photography and has attended residencies at Storm King Art Center, ACRE Projects, and Ox-Bow School of Art as a LeRoy Neiman Fellow.
