Jacq Groves (Queens, NY) is an interdisciplinary artist, researcher, and educator. Working across sculpture, installation, printmaking, and alternative photographic methods, Groves examines the intersections of trans embodiment, disability, queer ecology, and systems of knowledge. At the root of their practice they’re interested in making visual porous boundaries between bodies surrounding environments as well as scientific systems through material-based installations.
Recent solo exhibitions include a site-specific installation for Wave Hill's Sunroom Project Space in the Bronx. Their work has been exhibited throughout New York City at Springs Projects, Essex Flowers, The Jewish Museum, The Wallach Art Gallery, and Half Gallery. Nationally, they have exhibited at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, White Page Gallery, and Edgewood Gallery at Yale University and many more.
Groves is currently an artist-in-residence at Bunker Projects. Previous residencies include Bunker Projects, Loghaven Artist Residency, Stove Works, NARS Foundation, and Vermont Studio Center. They received an MFA in Visual Art from Columbia University in 2022 and recently completed the Foundation Fellowship in Arts + Sciences at Pratt Institute.
