On view in Detroit, MI

Jova Lynne, “Relax” Video Installation

Description

For the special NADA Miami 2020 edition, we are pleased to present the works of three Detroit-based artists: Carole Harris, Jova Lynne, and Tyanna Buie.

The project celebrates a muti-generational group of relevant contemporary black female artists currently practicing in the city of Detroit, but of very different backgrounds: Carole Harris, a fiber artist and long time resident of the city; Jova Lynne, an interdisciplinary conceptual artist and curator of Jamaican and Colombian heritage, born and raised in New York City, and currently based in Detroit; and Tyanna Buie, a Chicago, IL and Milwaukee, WI native, who moved to Detroit to take a position as Assistant Professor/Section Chair of Printmaking at the College for Creative Studies.

All three artists are known for pushing the limits of their practices, and for their engagement with community. Each artist is featured in a solo window installation, and additional works are also brought together in conversation at the gallery’s EDITION space.
