Noelle Mason

Shockwave: Interdisciplinary Foundations Art Education

Noelle Mason (b. 1977, USA) is an interdisciplinary artist whose work is about the insufficiencies of images to communicate important experiential layers that complicate the dialog around and response to disturbing and traumatic rifts in the American cultural fabric. Noelle’s work has been shown at the Ringling Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Museum of Fine Arts Houston among others.  She is the recipient of a Joan Mitchell Foundation Artist Grant, the Florida Prize for Contemporary Art, and the Southern Prize. In 2004 Noelle was a resident at the Skowhegan school of Painting and Sculpture, received her MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and currently holds the position of Associate Professor of Sculpture at the University of South Florida.
