}}Tameka Norris, also known as. T.J. Dedeaux-Norris and Meka Jean [1] is an American visual and performing artist. Norris uses painting, sculpture, and performance art to create work about racial identity and the simultaneous visibility and invisibility of blackness through cultural appropriation in modern society. [2] Her work critiques the presence of the black body in the history of painting and fine art. [3]

Early life and education

Norris studied at Santa Monica College in Santa Monica, California, and moved to UCLA School of the Arts and Architecture in 2007.[4] Norris went on to receive her Master of Fine Art degree from Yale School of Art.{{r|mp}}

Work and career

Norris is a tenure-track Assistant Professor at the University of Iowa. She has studied at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture (2009) [5] and has participated in many artist residencies including the MacDowell Colony (2016) [6] and The Fountainhead Residency [7]. She was a Fellow at the Grant Wood Art Colony from 2016 – 2017 [8].

Norris was listed as one of "24 Artists to Watch in 2013" by Modern Painters magazine[9]

Performance art

In 2013 Norris was a part of a group exhibition and performance titled "Radical Presence: Black Performance in Contemporary Art" [10][11] This exhibition, held at The Studio Museum in Harlem, was a view of performance art by Black Visual Artists over the past five decades, and featured over a dozen live performances over a six-month period. [12] For this exhibition, Norris performed her 2012 work [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THgI8enEi7c Untitled (2012)]. In this work, Norris paints a wall using her body as both the paint and the paintbrush. Norris runs a knife through a lemon, then cuts her tongue and while pressing her body against the wall uses the trail of blood and saliva to create a minimalist landscape on the gallery walls. The resulting effect is to disrupt the notions of a pristine white-cube gallery space, bringing up ideas of the body, violence, and pain. [13] [14]This exhibition was documented in Hyperallergic and the New York Times [15][16]

Visual art

Norris's solo exhibituons include "Tameka Norris: Too Good For You (Introducing Meka Jean)" at the Lombard Fried Gallery in 2014 [17], "Almost Acquaintances" at the Ronchini Gallery in 2014 [18], and "Not Acquiescing" at the 1708 Gallery in 2015 [19].

In 2012 her work was included in the "MFA Annual" edition of New American Painting magazine, an anthology of MFA graduate work from more than a hundred colleges in the United States.[20]

Her exhibition Between Bloodlines and Floodlines was shown at the Savannah College of Art and Design in Atlanta, Georgia, in 2015.[21]

Film

Her feature length-film Meka Jean: How She Got Good, is an internal investigation of identity and culture, starring the artist as herself in a search for identity, home, and what it means to be from New Orleans. This film was debuted during the international exhibition Prospect.3 New Orleans,and was presented as a multi-chambered installation at May Gallery, a nonprofit art space in New Orleans. [22]

Music

in 2016 Norris released a conceptual rap album titled "Ivy League Ratchet" in conjunction with a four-person exhibition at the SVA Chelsea Gallery titled "The Beat Goes On". This album spoke about issues such as being a woman of color and attending an Ivy League school. [23][24]
