I believe that it will have an important impact on the artists themselves and their influence on the art world," as Pathy Allen — the noted visual artist whose work has been"focused on expanding cultural consciousness around gender and transformation" and is funding the grant — said.
Furthermore, Lang explained that the grant"also seeks to confront the systemic barriers that deny [Black trans women] artistic opportunities and a sustainable craft." "By supporting this grant, Mariette Pathy Allen challenges herself and the art industry to see Black trans women as more than mere subjects," Lang added,"While forging a new pathway for visual artists within this community to thrive."
Applications are open to U.S.-based Black trans women and trans femme artists until August 30, 2020. For more information about applying, contact Illuminations Grant Manager Ray Ferreira at
