Melissa Joseph

Ep.150 features Melissa Joseph (b. 1980, Saint Marys PA), a New York based artist and independent curator. Her work addresses themes of memory, family history, and the politics of how we occupy spaces. She intentionally alludes to the labors of women as well as her experiences as a second generation American and the unique juxtapositions of diasporic life. Her work has been shown at the Delaware Contemporary, Woodmere Art Museum, Utah Museum of Contemporary Art, Brattleboro Museum and Art Center, Jeffrey Deitch Projects, MOCA Arlington, and List Gallery at Swarthmore College. She has been featured in Hyperallergic, Artnet, New American Paintings, Le Monde, CNN, and Architectural Digest and participated in residencies at Dieu Donné, Fountainhead, BRIC, the Archie Bray Foundation for Ceramic Arts, and will be in residence at the Museum of Arts and Design and Greenwich House Pottery in 2023.
