Bella Thomas-Wilson
I am a sophomore in the College Scholars program with a program titled “The Experiences and Representations of Women in American Art.”
I am examining the intersections and complexities of art, liberation, and gender. Through my studies, I intend to further my knowledge on how to be an art curator who actively listens to the desires and needs of artists. It is important to me to learn how to properly increase accessibility, visibility, and inclusivity so that underrepresented people can have a space to show their work to the greater community. I hope to represent women from different cultural backgrounds in exhibitions, highlighting the importance of equal and accurate representation. I have a passion for studying the historical artworks that are created by and associated with women—some of which have been burned, demolished, hidden, or forgotten.
