Marcy Chevali is an artist based in New York. She often uses the net or grid in her work because of its ability to expand and for its ambiguity, it can be threatening like a fishing net or reassuring like a safety net.
She has shown work in galleries and artists’ spaces including Queens Museum of Art, Noyes Museum, Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum, Aicon Gallery, AIR Gallery, and Gallery Aferro, and with organizations such as South Asian Women’s Creative Collective, Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art, ABC No Rio, Project for an Empty Space, 4heads and Peculiar Works Projects. She has attended residencies including Playa, Edward Albee Foundation, and Haystack Mountain School of Craft. In 2021 she was awarded a Ron Desmett Memorial Award for Imagination With Glass from Pittsburgh Glass Center. She will be an artist in residence at Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts this fall.
