Alexis Tyson - TWZ

Multidisciplinary Artist, Curator and Public Historian

Art for every condition,

the Human condition.

“Let’s make the world a brighter place, literally. A key part of my philosophy as an Artist is to always bring vibrancy into our everyday live because even mundane additions of color help our subconscious recognize positive spaces. Location's important - it’s not just where a piece lives but also who has access to it. Public spaces give us the chance to kick off conversations and thoughts that we wouldn’t strike up as passing strangers. Public Art invites the viewer out of their heads and into the public sphere. A chance to be vulnerable by ourselves in a passing moment.”

Let The Record Show

Installation Art | Summer 2024 - Harborplace, Baltimore MD

“This circular display of nostalgia takes us back to the days of analog sound, serving as a metaphor for the record of our lives. Do we really know where we’re going, or are we scratched and stuck on repeat?“  

Jenenne Whitfield, Curator

An installation by Detroit-Based artist Tyree Guyton
In collaboration with Baltimore-based artists BlissArmyKnife, Mwaipungu and TWZ
