Qualeasha Wood

b. 1996 Long Branch, New Jersey, USA
Lives and works in Philadelphia, PA, USA

CURRICULUM VITAE     SELECT PRESS

Qualeasha Wood is a textile artist whose work contemplates realities around black female embodiment that do and might exist. Inspired by a familial relationship to textiles, queer craft, Microsoft Paint and internet avatars, Wood's tufted and tapestry pieces mesh traditional craft and contemporary technological materials. Thus, Qualeasha navigates both an Internet environment saturated in Black Femme figures and culture, and a political and economic environment holding that embodiment at the margins. Like the vast majority of her age-peers, Wood has operated one mortal and multiple digital avatars since pre-adolescence. For her, what are intuitive combinations of analog and cybernetic compositional processes, make for a plainly contemporary exploration of Black American Femme ontology.
