Joyce LeeAnn Joseph:
Art and Survival Fellow
Joyce LeeAnn is a certified archivist and an interdisciplinary artist. She has worked for a community archive, a corporate archive, a large public library, and a prestigious museum. However, her archival praxis began as a young girl, and as an act of decolonization she centers her innate methodologies. In 2011, she self-published her archival text, somethymes grief goes for a walk. In 2013, she co-curated The Finding Aid: Black Women at the Intersection of Art and Archiving at the Schomburg Center. She is a House of Noire gem, and was a Create Change fellow with The Laundromat Project and a MoCADA creator in residence. In 2017, she emancipated her labor by cultivating Archival Alchemy®, a small business that supports cultural institutions and artists to activate and enrich archives.
