When We Drop Fear


September 5th - 26th, 2026
at COOP Gallery, 507 Hagan Street, Nashville, TN 37203 



 



When We Drop Fear is a participatory artwork inviting viewers to engage directly with the artist’s personal memories, visualized as large drawings hanging from the ceiling. Participants are welcome to interact with the drawings by tearing them—using their hands or personal tools—as much or as little as they wish, then use the torn pieces to express their memories related to fear through words, drawings, or other marks. Leaving the piece untouched is equally valid. As viewers participate, the hanging drawings will gradually diminish while accumulating torn pieces on the floor. Those fragments will be transformed into a new body of work titled When We Drop Fear.
