Phoebe is an interdisciplinary artist from Rhode Island.
She recently earned her MFA in Studio Art from the University of Texas at Austin, where she was the 2023–2025 recipient of the Russell Lee Endowed Presidential Scholarship in Photography and the William and Bettye Nowlin Endowed Presidential Fellowship. Phoebe has exhibited nationally and internationally, with recent shows at WaterWork in Austin, Candela Gallery in Richmond, Noorderlicht Biënnale in the Netherlands, and the Visual Arts Center in Austin. Her ongoing work "Bad Dogs" was awarded a 2026 project grant from Working Assumptions and the 2024 Film Photo Student Award sponsored by Kodak. Phoebe's work has been featured in Southwest Contemporary Magazine, Fotofilmic, Musée Magazine, and F-Stop Magazine. In 2024, Phoebe was selected as one of Review Santa Fe’s 100 featured photographers at Center. She holds a BFA in Photography from the Rhode Island School of Design, where she received the John A. Chironna Scholarship and the Paul Krot Memorial Scholarship for excellence in photography. Currently, she manages the Photo and Media Arts Lab at St. Edward’s University and teaches as a lecturer at the University of Texas at Austin and Austin Community College. Much of Phoebe’s work emerges from her intimate relationships and connection to her childhood home-turned-junkyard. Phoebe explores accumulation, collaboration, and memory from the perspectives of art, psychology, and American consumerism. Her practice involves serious play: transfiguring trash, negotiating function, and making magic from the everyday. Phoebe believes in the power of collaborative art making to create new paths that challenge the status quo. This can range from reconsidering responses to mental illness and repairing relationships to reclaiming agency within alienating systems.
