Meet Tye (she/her): chronic sufferer of wanderlust, multi-hyphenate creative, Raja yoga instructor, and lover of all things otherworldly. Her work explores the relationship between play and joy as tools for collective and individual liberation. Having helped access the parts of her humanity that have been mired by anti-blackness, capitalism, and patriarchy, Tye hypothesizes that courageous curiosity and playful experimentation are how we all access the best, and perhaps forgotten, parts of our humanity. The goal: accessing your joy. As a conceptual artist and experiential designer, the Pittsburgh native creates immersive environments and interactive art that illuminates the intricacies of the human experience.
