Carmen Winant is a Professor in the Department of Art at Ohio State University, where she is the Roy Lichtenstein Chair of Studio Art, and an affiliated faculty member in Women's Gender and Sexuality Studies. Winant’s work poses a challenge to the ways that we understand women’s power, pleasure, labor, healing, and liberation to function, querying the aesthetic and political legacy of second-wave feminism. Winant’s appropriative installations and artist's books grapple with this question for all of its contradictory impulses: the awe of living in a revolutionary moment, a shared preoccupation with the female body as a zone of political strife, cognizance of the racial and class-based limitations of the second-wave movement; the mine- and not-mine nature of historical legacy. In using found photographs, Winant acts upon primary evidence (rather than indexical reference); the images incorporated into her work contend directly with the complex notion of socio-political inheritance. Winant has taught in Ohio prisons through The Ohio Prison Education Exchange Project (OPEEP) has also served as the Dean of Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture (2013-2015); and is a 2019 Guggenheim fellow in photography.

As transcenDANCE looks back at our beginnings, we connect to the tree imagery of our roots, our strong foundation, and the dreams that have manifested from our collective work. Our creative community nourishes us, allows us a space for healing, and supports us in our flourishing. Almost 20 years ago, transcenDANCE was co-founded by 12 teens and 2 adults who sat under a tree at Hoover High School. Rooted in our strong bonds and love of dance, we dreamed of what transcenDANCE could be for ourselves, each other, and our community. As we reflect on this origin story, we have invited our current CREATE students to explore what grounds them, what nourishes them, and what dreams they want to bring to life. Rooted & Dreaming brings together dance, poetry and art co-created by CREATE students and professional artists that will inspire audiences and celebrate creative expression by young artists of San Diego.
