About the Artist
Myra Greene is a distinguished American artist whose photographic practice critically examines themes of race, identity, and the very materiality of the photographic image. Her work often moves beyond conventional representation, employing experimental techniques, abstraction, and the manipulation of photographic surfaces to challenge historical narratives and perceptions of Black bodies. Greene's art is characterized by its nuanced exploration of color, texture, and form, inviting viewers to engage with the complex interplay between light, pigment, and the construction of identity. Her work offers a profound meditation on the power of the image and the politics of visibility in contemporary culture.
