Patrick (b.1982) is an artist and educator based in New York City. Through community based art projects, he co-creates spaces for collaboration, active participation, and the exchange of cultural knowledge.
Patrick’s ongoing project, Mobile Print Power, is a multigenerational mobile print collective based in Corona, Queens. It uses printmaking as a vehicle for collaboration and empowerment. Over the past 2 years the 15 core members of Mobile Print Power have developed a working methodology for engaging their community in the creation of printed work in public space. Patrick’s drawings, prints, and sculptures serve as fieldnotes, documenting the development of this participatory work.
Patrick’s work has been included in group shows at Kunsthalle Galapagos, Brooklyn, NY (2012), MoMA Studio, MoMA Education Space, New York, NY (2013), Plant House Gallery, New York, NY (2013), IPCNY, New York, NY (2014), and Macy Gallery at Teacher’s College, Columbia University, New York, NY (2014).
