Abigail Lucien (b.1992) is a Haitian-American interdisciplinary artist whose works belong to a third-culture terrain – a transnational landscape where contradictions are embraced and code meshing is the norm. From material to color to language, Lucien’s practice addresses themes of (be)longing, futurity, myth, (im)migration, and place by exploring inherited colonial structures and systems of belief/care. Lucien was named to the 2021 Forbes 30 Under 30 list, is a recipient of a 2021 VMFA Fellowship and the 2020 Harpo Emerging Artist Fellow. Past exhibitions include SculptureCenter (NY), MoMA PS1 (NY), MAC Panamá (Panamá), Deli Gallery (NY), Canada (NY), Atlanta Contemporary (Atlanta, GA), UICA (Grand Rapids, MI), and The Fabric Workshop and Museum (Philadelphia, PA). Residencies include Amant Studio & Research Residency in New York, the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Fine Arts (Wrocław, Poland), The Luminary (St. Louis, MO), Santa Fe Art Institute (Santa Fe, NM), ACRE (Steuben, WI), and Ox-Bow School of Art & Artist Residency (Saugatuck, MI). Lucien is currently based in Baltimore, MD where they teach sculpture at the Maryland Institute College of Art.
