Working from Home: New Commissions @ Museum of Contemporary Art, Tucson

Mark McKnight, Untitled (Light Falls), Cyanotype on cotton sateen, 84x60 inches, 2020

Working from Home features new commissions from five artists––Miguel Fernández de Castro, Nazafarin Lotfi, Mark McKnight, Nicole Miller, and Rocki Swiderski––and two poets––Dot Devota and Raquel Gutiérrez––who are all connected to Tucson and the surrounding bi-national region. Each contributor has a unique perspective on this moment of pandemic and protest as well as on the local landscape by virtue of currently or recently living, working, or quarantining in the area. The premise of the exhibition is centered on directly supporting the creation of new objects and ideas as well as underscoring the essential work artists and poets perform, especially during moments of social and cultural crisis.
