Founded by artists for artists in 1998, Locust Projects is Miami’s longest running nonprofit alternative art space. We produce, present, and nurture ambitious and experimental new art and the exchange of ideas through commissioned exhibitions and projects, artist residencies, summer art intensives for teens, and public programs on contemporary art and curatorial practice. As a leading incubator of new art and ideas, Locust Projects emphasizes boundary-pushing creative endeavors, risk-taking and experimentation by local, national and international artists. We invest in South Florida’s arts community by providing artists with project grants and empower creative careers by supporting the administrative work of being an artist through an onsite artist resource hub and access to pro bono legal services.

The project serves as a physical embodiment of Martin Jackson’s poem No Rothko, creating an immersive environment that captures the metaphysical experience of viewing a Rothko painting and sharing this experience as a collective activity. HOW TO: Oh, look at me expresses Gonzalez’s deep commitment to creating provocative, participatory social spaces within institutional settings. As acts of queer infiltration and class-aware interventionism, her work asks the viewer to see and explore, to dance and read out loud the potential of our embodied cognition. <a href="http://www.locustprojects.org/exhibitions/main-gallery/how-to-oh-look-at-me.html" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Learn more - GeoVanna Gonzalez: HOW TO: Oh, look at me</a>PROJECT ROOM I &amp; II:Disembodied guest curated by Dennis SchollLocust Projects presents Disembodied, the third in a series of guest curated video exhibitions in Locust Projects’ Screening Room that launched in fall 2019.
