DonChristian Jones: The Politics of Mourning IV

June 1 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Event Series Event Series (See All)
$10

DonChristian Jones is a postdisciplinary artist and social sculptor whose practice blurs the boundaries between visual art, music, performance, and social intervention. Working across media and modes, his work engages architecture, community, and futurity—often emerging from spaces shaped by surveillance, abandonment, or resistance.

Raised in Philadelphia and based in New York, DonChristian’s early years painting inside Rikers Island and other carceral institutions ground his work in both aesthetic experimentation and civic urgency. His installations, soundworks, and performances have appeared at The Whitney Museum, MoMA PS1, The Shed, New Museum, and Brooklyn Museum, among others.

In 2020, he founded Public Assistants Inc.—a radical mutual aid network and community design studio that reimagines urban space as a site of liberation, care, and creative infrastructure.
