Crystal Z Campbell will research and develop Separate, But Equal: Algorithms for Empathy, a new body of work that includes audio works, new media projects, short experimental films and interactive installations that create a rupture in the historical archive of Black History through technological filters.

A former social worker, Campbell has exhibited at Project Row Houses, Exit Art, The New Children’s Museum of San Diego, Fotofest Biennial, MoCADA and Lui Velasquez in Tijuana among others. In 2003, Campbell completed the Skowhegan School of Painting & Sculpture and earned a Master of Fine Arts from the University of California-San Diego in 2010. Campbell was a 2010-2011 Van Lier Studio Art Fellow in the Whitney Museum of American Art’s Independent Study Program.
