South Dwntn Residency:
Tia Blake
186 Mitchell St SW Atlanta, GA
september 15, 2020 - december 31, 2020
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For 3 months, artist Tia Blake (aka Miss He) occupied a formerly vacant space in downtown Atlanta. Called the South Dwntn Residency, this opportunity gave her the resources and freedom to challenge her practice & build whatever the space inspires. For Tia’s residency period, she transformed the space into a drag recording space.
