Wendy Cohen
Wendy is an artist, educator, and arts coordinator based in Brooklyn. She joined Chashama in the summer of 2022 and manages Chashama’s studio spaces throughout the city. Prior to Chashama, she coordinated programs and exhibitions at CUE Art Foundation, interned in the curatorial department of the Whitney Museum of Art, and taught art classes with the Church Street School for Music & Art. Wendy graduated with a BA in Visual Art from Brown University, where she also worked as an Exhibitions Curator at The Science Center and a Gallery Preparator at the List Art Center.
In the studio, Wendy can be found playing with yarn and creating sculptural textile installations, which are informed by a background in figurative painting. She was a resident for sculpture at the Vermont Studio Center in January 2020. Exhibitions include “Threads that Bind” (Brooklyn Waterfront Artists Coalition, NY), “Thoughts & Prayers: Another Round of Vacant Stares” (Chashama Matawan, NJ), “Leave Your Swords at the Door” (Riverfront Art Gallery, Yonkers, NY), and “tense tangled tethered” (solo, List Art Center, RI).
