About Carrie

Carrie Dashow is a NYC-based interdisciplinary artist working at the intersection of video, performance and visual arts. Her often-participatory work, which includes community, historical and municipal-based projects, examines the undercurrents of authority, subjectivity and an indebted relationship to location. The resulting combinations of performance, video, books, structures and songs involve the audience in tactile, truer than true experiences, providing the opportunity for re-negotiation. Her participatory-style performances among diverse audiences reveal a momentary sense of community and possibility. Much of her work takes place in social and collective situations, either on the street, in communities, galleries or classes. Read full bio »
