Knowing Knowing (2024-ongoing)

Knowing Knowing explores the different ways in which we gather knowledge. Through a series of community-inspired, conceptual paintings, the exhibition investigates the personal and communal processes of determining truths.

​

The paintings, which evolve from each showing, depict seven different categories of knowing. “How do you know what you know?", "What does it feel like to know?”, “What do you do to know?”.

​

The project's duplicative title emphasizes a duality of knowing, prompting an emphasis on both process and conclusion. By disrupting traditional aesthetics through unconventional materials, humor, and visual tension, the project welcomes curiosity and encourages audience members to engage in reflection.

​

This project examines sociological reflections on epistemology. During an era of "unprecedented" social and political shifts, I hope for this participatory community-focused exhibition to curate tender curiosity - disinterested in resolution or certainty but infatuated with building capacity for discourse and authenticity.​
