Portrait by David Heald

Midge is an artist currently pursuing her MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art in MI. Her work in photography and ceramic sculpture explores the elements of light, time, and surface as both material and subject. She uses analogue film cameras and prints her own work, often in a traditional darkroom. She has a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. Much of her work has been shaped by her experience living in Italy. From 2016-2017, she was awarded a Fulbright scholarship in photography based in Sicily where the island’s ancient cultures and surreal bodily landscapes deeply influenced her way of seeing.

Her solo exhibitions include: In the Painting Room at the Milton Resnick and Pat Passloff Foundation in New York (2021), Scirocco at the Italian Consulate in New York (2020) and Passages, at Francesco Pantaleone Arte Contemporanea Gallery in Palermo (2019). Her work has been included in art fairs and group exhibitions including Miart, Milan (2023), The Phair, Torino (2022), Fittile, at Francesco Pantaleone Gallery (2020), Focal Points: Women Advancing the Aperture, at The Delaware Contemporary Arts Museum (2020), Living Image at The Halide Project, Philadelphia (2020), Paese Mediterraneo, Il Museo Civico di Castelbuono (2017), among others.

She is represented in Italy by Francesco Pantaleone Arte Contemporanea.
