Lindsay Deifik

About

Deifik's work vacillates between figuration and abstraction, and finds its form in drawings, prints, and sculpture. Recently, she has been looking at women’s bodies in Western canonical works, and analyzing their sense of agency. Much of her work interrogates a strange web of pleasure and violence, both acutely as well as historically. Lindsay practices in Philadelphia, PA, where she received her MFA from the Tyler School of Art. She also holds a BFA in Printmaking and Drawing from Washington University in Saint Louis. She is a former co-director and resident of Front/Space, a 2013 Rauschenberg Seed Grant recipient. She has been an artist in residence at ACRE, the Philadelphia Art Hotel, the Charlotte Street Foundation's Urban Culture Project, and an Apprentice at The Fabric Workshop and Museum. She is currently a member of Fjord: https://www.fjordspace.com/, a curatorial project space in Philadelphia.
