Carol recieves 2019 Scholarship Award to Common Field

What is Common Field?

Common Field is a National Network of  independent arts organizations and organizers.

 

MISSION

Common Field connects, supports and advocates for the artist-centered field by providing a network for independent arts organizations and organizers.

 

ABOUT

Common Field is a national network of independent visual arts organizations and organizers that connects, supports, and advocates for the artist-centered field. Founded in 2013 and launched in 2015, the Common Field network has 700+ members across 43 states. Programs include national convenings, grants, research, resources, forums, meet-ups and advocacy. Our vision is to increase understanding, involvement and knowledge of artists organizations and their value, and increase their capacity through national connectivity, dialog understanding and support.

Common Field’s network includes contemporary, experimental, noncommercial artist-centric organizations and organizers including alternative art spaces, publications, digital exhibition venues, residencies, platforms, collectives, collaboratives, and individual organizers. These projects and spaces provide interdisciplinary and hybrid forms for art production, reception, and exchange. They generate independent, responsive, grassroots, artist-centered cultures. They support artists, connect artists with the public in intimate, experimental, and generative ways, and they are deeply involved in the shape and characters of the contexts where they work. Our members stimulate ideas, imagination, and innovation in their communities.

 

 

GOALS

  • Creating broad public visibility for artist organizations and organizers

  • Articulating the common practices and values of visual arts organizing

  • Sharing histories and stories of the field

  • Facilitating forums for convening, peer-to-peer knowledge, and exchange across geographies and communities

  • Providing platforms for resources, tools, and advocacy

  • Demonstrating responsive, diverse, and accessible approaches to creative production

Group Exhibition at the Kirkland Arts Center

Capability is a meditation on gun culture and gun violence in the United States. Artists from the local and national community reflect on the multi-faceted ways in which guns have woven themselves into our cultural identity. Capability uses compassion and empathy to dissect the historical and contemporary contexts that address the questions: How did we get here? How do we move forward?

Featuring Scott Horn, Holly Ballard Martz, Carol Rashawnna, and many more, Capability asks the viewer to contend with our national history and our personal identities. What are we capable of doing as individuals? What are we capable of allowing as a nation? How can we talk about these problems without vilifying the “other side” – whomever that means?

The themes with which we frame gun violence have changed throughout the 21st century, but guns have continued to be a focal point in our art making as our society grapples what their place is in this contemporaneous moment. What makes “Capability” different is that it ties multiple themes together. Instead of treating police brutality, suicide, mass shootings, hunting, masculinity, and more, as separate issues, it looks at the way that gun use and gun violence are threads that link together these strands in our society.

This exhibit is in partnership with the UW Emerging Curator Initiative (ECI). ECI allows Museology students develop exhibit concepts, and one student is selected to curate their concept through a show at the Kirkland Arts Center.

ARTWORK BY CAROL RASHAWNNA WILLIAMS:

ABOUT THE INSTALLATION: ‘BODY BAG’

  • PERSONAL STORIES: 85% of those killed by gun violence are black Americans and youth. These are my personal stories related to gun violence.

  • LEGACY-ASSASSINATIONS: We as Americans forget there is a legacy related to guns in the African American community & that legacy started with slavery, and slaves not being allowed gun right privileges.

  • IN THE NEWS: These are the contemporary stories portrayed in our news media.

  • COWRY SHELLS: Traditionally, in Africa, these shells were used as a form of currency to trade goods. Guns traditionally have been purchased to protect ‘property’ and ‘resources,’ and ‘capital’ - these symbolize stories of gun violence as currency, capital and the power of stories as wealth.

2018 International Exhibit #2 - The Segura River

The month of August Carol conducted workshops and traveling  interviews to gain community participation in a 3 citywide art installation featuring stories gathered regarding climate change in the Segura River in Blanca, Murcia and surrounding villages affected by this change.  She gathered stories from old and young and even commissioned 3 young teenagers who grew up In Blanca to interview their family and friends and create monoprints of their stories that then were apart of the installations.  Carol's monoprints were also featured in this community wide installations.  Her artwork featured drawings from her days spent at the river drawing community experiences, researching the Cain that is affecting the river and human devastation due to garbage dumped in the river.

 

On opening night community members who had participated in the creation of this installations came from far and wide to view their work on display. It was a tremendous turnout with grave reviews and everyone wanting to find their artwork and tell their stories in a community setting. You can vie w the video by clicking on the link.  

2018 International Exhibit #1 - Experiments in Color

The Artwork of Carol goes on exhibit at the AADK, Spain Residency in an open studio exhibition.  This work features mono-prints in the study of texture and color. This experiment was in prep for the full Segura installation to take place the following month in Sept. 

Carol creating fields of color in various textures, bands and shape on pre-prepped paper that would become available for workshop participants to choose and then create their own personal Segura River story, tale or experience via monoprint artwork.

2018 Aug 2 thru Jan 2018 Tamborine Public Art Sculpture Installation

SOOOO Excited!

 

The Public Art Piece that was accepted by the City of Seattle's Office of Arts & Cultures Seattle Center Sculpture Walk 2018 (to be installed August 2) is coming along so great! See Pics enclosed =)

 

It's a large 10 foot x 6 foot  African American Tambourine (specifically my mothers from when we used to go to church as a child & I can't wait for her to see it!)...it's a statement on how the Tambourine is intrinsic to the African American Pentecostal Church experience, but not traditionally seen as a 'high' or 'official' instrument in Western culture.  It's designed to be interactive, folks will be able to walk under it and 'play' it so to speak... hahaha...

 

Also, very excited that I have a mtg tonight about my other project I am currently working on here in Spain. It's a ECOART Project designed to be full of community engagement. The focus will be the Segura river and hopefully those Sparrow birds you saw in 1 of the very first videos I posted when I arrived in AADK.

 

Both are being severely impacted by global warming and climate change, and I want to bring attention to that, and garner community stories of the relationship to both... it's not something that is being talked about here widely. My hope is to also, bring awareness for you all in America too, so do follow this story...

 

I am also working on these truly gorgeous 'test' subjects: small mono-prints - about identity. This is the first time I have started to add color instead of just black and white and going back in with color. Some are turning out very interesting tho these are just the first layers. I have found that my identity here is very interesting...I just started a blog on my website, and will go in more depth there, but the short is: being a black woman in a town named 'white' town (BLANCA means white) yet being at a residency named 'Negra' which means 'black' AND being the only black person in the entire village has been VERY thought provoking...so I have been creating work around that too. I have some pretty amazing artist colleagues who have also helped me to expand my ideologies and concepts, very grateful to them for that!

 

This is for sure turning out to be 1 very surprising year =)

The Residency program is a space for experimentation and dialogue where confronting the artists with their ideas and finding the deeper meanings of their work. Process based and focused, we challenge the artists to experiment and take risks, sharing their doubts, and trials.

 

We invite residents to work at the intersection of art, social sciences, and local communities. Connecting the topics with the context, AADK Spain supports cultural decentralization and access to contemporary art in the rural areas, integrating the town of Blanca and its surroundings in the development of the artworks.

She will be exploring eco-art and experimenting with new techniques that encompass content built around the Sigura River and residents of Blanca. Stay tunes or sign up for her blog, where she will be sharing her experience.

2018 Public Art Proposal Accepted for Seattle Center Sculpture Walk

Carol's proposal for the Sculpture walk, a 9 month installation, has been accepted, to be installed August 2, 2018, the Fall of 2018.

This is my mothers tambourine that resembles tambourines African American Pentecostal Churches. Carol decided to take her mothers tambourine and create heritage out of it and propose to have it installed at the Seattle Science Center.

 

Why is this important? In symphonies, orchestras and bands in America, how often do you see tambourines used? It's not considered a 'traditional' instrument. This piece will ask participants to question their historical connection to music.
