Joyce Morrow Jones
About
Developed to support and highlight the work of emerging or early-career artists in Cuyahoga County, moCa AIR allows the museum to work alongside artists through 5-month, long-form onsite engagements. Artists-in-residence receive an honorarium, program support, a dedicated studio space inside the museum, professional development opportunities, access to the museum’s production studios, and administrative support. During their time in residence, each artist will develop a site-specific project that activates a site in the building outside of the traditional gallery spaces with production funds provided by moCa.
About the Artist
Joyce Morrow Jones is a mixed media fiber and sculpture artist
weaving the art of storytelling through her creations. Her work
is inspired by transformational stories of women in their journey
through life, history, and cultural traditions. African and Diaspora
themes reflecting cultural traditions often with multicultural
images are also prominent in her artwork. Born in Cleveland, Joyce acknowledges her Jamaican and African heritage. Those influences will continue throughout her residency with moCa as she expands “Ancestral Tributes” in both oral tradition of storytelling and creative expression. Select exhibitions include shows at BayArts in Bay Village, OH; Artists Archives of the Western Reserve, Cleveland, OH; and the Sculpture Center, Cleveland, OH. She was a 2019 Artist-in-Residence at Karamu House.
moCa AIR is supported by Margaret Cohen & Kevin Rahilly and Char & Chuck Fowler
