2025 USA Fellowship Award
Proud to share that I am one of the 2025 USA Fellows!!! This award will have an immense impact and is fortuitously timed. I am soo grateful. “In 2025, USA enters our 20th year of commitment to durable, sustainable support to artists and creative practitioners in All Stages, in All Ways, Always. This year, we are thrilled to award a new cohort of USA Fellows, fifty exceptional artists and collectives working in ten disciplines in twenty-one US states, spanning the most nascent to mature stages of careers.”
August 2024—Five artists at this year’s Whitney Biennial have very close Philly ties, “A piece of driftwood she had gathered 13 years ago now finds itself in Stop Gap. Olivier kept thinking about the wood and while she grieved her best friend’s death during the pandemic, she finally knew what she could do with it. She had clothing left over from a previous show at ICA. She took them and filled a large, center gap in the wood.”
