I'm so honored to share that I am a finalist for the 2024 Baker Artist Award in Visual Arts. Congratulations to all of the amazing finalists!

Finalists announced for the 2024 Baker Artist Awards
36 artists selected from the Baker Artist Portfolios

The Greater Baltimore Cultural Alliance and the William G. Baker, Jr. Memorial Fund are thrilled to announce the finalists for the 2024 Baker Artist Awards. The 36 finalists were selected from almost 700 artists who created a Baker Artist Portfolio in 2024.

The 2024 finalists were selected by an anonymous jury, and exemplify excellence in three areas: mastery of craft, depth of artistic exploration, and a unique vision. Baker Artist Award Finalists are divided equally amongst the website’s six artistic disciplines: visual, literary, interdisciplinary, film/ video, performance and music. All artists who have received a cumulative total of less than $20,000 in previous prizes remain eligible for a Baker Artist Award.

Since 2009, the Baker Artist Awards has distributed $90,000 in annual prize money, awarding over $1.3million to over 150 artists over the past 16 years. The 2024 Baker Artist Awardees will be announced in June, with one artist from each of the six artistic disciplines receiving a $10,000 Mary Sawyers Baker Prize. One of the six selected artists will also receive the additional $30,000 Mary Sawyers Imboden Prize, for a total prize of $40,000—the largest art prize in the region.

Mother-in-Law’s is pleased to present Par·ley, a group exhibition curated by Field Projects taking place on the surrounding grounds outside of the exhibition space.

The curtilage of our homes has always been a space where we negotiate with Nature. We plant, prune, uproot, foster, weed, govern and curate this space. Nature, in turn, does everything possible to reclaim, reroot and rewild it, reminding us that for now we may manipulate nature but we are also governed by Nature.

Par·ley brings together a group of artists under the arch of this negotiated space and examines different methods of living with and parallel from nature.
