Phoebe Shuman-Goodier is an interdisciplinary artist with a BFA from RISD and an ongoing MFA at UT Austin, known for using art as a form of catharsis and promoting collaborative artmaking.
Her series, Bad Dogs, chronicles a decade of visits to her childhood home, which has become a junkyard, exploring a complex father-daughter dynamic and the impact of hoarding disorder. The work reflects family history through the property's accumulated objects. Shuman-Goodier plans to use a film grant to continue this personal project with her father, ultimately creating a book and exhibition.
