AMPLIFYING JOY AND EXPLORING MEMORY THROUGH IMMERSIVE INSTALLATIONS
Jane Cheek, a Raleigh, North Carolina-based installation artist, specializes in immersive installations that amplify joy and explore memory, drawing inspiration from her life and identity as a bisexual woman, mother, and wife from the American South. Through her work, she uses techniques traditionally associated with women's work and craft to transform everyday materials into monumental installations. Each creation is a meditation on the power of intentionality and resilience, as Cheek meticulously crafts her pieces through thousands of small actions. Her art is a continuation of a lifelong practice of cataloging joy, as a means of navigating life's ups and downs.
