About the Curator

“Home Is…” was curated by Bianca Mońa. As an artist, curator and arts educator and advocate, she has initiated several projects at institutions such as the Studio Museum in Harlem, the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and the Market Photo Workshop (Johannesburg, South Africa). An oral history–centered sound artist, Mońa has received commissions from The Laundromat Project and Culture Push. She holds a bachelor’s degree in arts administration from Dillard University and two master’s degrees (one in arts education, the other in interdisciplinary studies) from San Jose State University and Teachers College, Columbia University, respectively. She is pursuing doctoral studies at the University of the West Indies in Cave Hill, Barbados.
