Mz. Icar is an anonymous art collective comprised primarily of Black Women. Our name is racIzM, backward. We recognize that gender and race are constructs and our identifications reflect this particular time, place, and context. We mention both primarily to contextualize the point of view of the work. We started this collective to tell stories that celebrate Women, Culture, and Play. Our work explores play, beauty, and radical liberation. It is informed by our collective experiences, and fascination with color, texture, and proportions. Our works are explorative element arrangements resulting in murals, photographs, illustrations, moving images, AR and installation work. Our work has been exhibited a MINT Gallery Atlanta, Culture House DC, and Welancora Gallery, We have done site-specific installation work at Etsy's HQ, and branded art projects for Ms. Lauryn Hill's world tour, Essence Magazine, BET, and Doritos. Our Value series was included in the 2020 Photoville Exhibition, Downtown Brooklyn. We are cohorts of Philadelphia’s 2021 Fellowship for Black Artists, Presented by Mural Arts Philadelphia.
