GREENNESS BY ALEX DOLORES SALERNO

Real Art Ways presents a solo exhibition by 2023 Real Art Award recipient Alex Dolores Salerno. Spanning installation, soft sculpture, video, and photography, Alex Dolores Salerno’s first solo exhibition, Greenness, draws from the artist’s own autistic experience of nature, and the sense of “access intimacy” (as coined by Mia Mingus) that they feel through the work of disabled ancestor Mel Baggs (sie/hir pronouns). Salerno dedicates the exhibition to Baggs and incorporates hir language and wisdom in multiple works.
