Something incredible has happened that will support my work in an untold multitude of ways – I have been awarded The Hudgens Prize.

This prize is a gift made by anonymous donors and bequeathed by the Hudgens Center for the Arts.  It is one of the largest art awards in the US, a cash prize of $50,000 awarded to an individual artist.

I am so honored to have been selected from the formidable finalists by the extraordinary jury of curators:

Doryun Chong, Museum of Modern Art/NY and newly appointed as Chief Curator of M+Hong Kong’s new art museum opening in 2017

Toby Kamps, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art, The Menil Collection

Heather Pesanti, Senior Curator of The Contemporary Austin
