Explore the world of art with the Enoch Pratt Free Library as they introduce Phylicia Ghee, their new Artist in Residence during a special evening at Current Space.

Tuesday, October 22nd
7:00 PM – 9:30 PM

The Hackerman Artist in Residence Program is a unique artist residency designed to bring creatives from all corners of Baltimore together to share and create at the Pratt Library.

The Hackerman 2025 Artist in Residence is local artist Phylicia Ghee.

During her residency, she will explore a deeply personal collaboration with her grandmother to create a quilt that delves into themes of lineage, memory, and ancestral connection. This quilt will incorporate self-portraits, family photographs, MRI scans, and natural fabrics, weaving together both personal and collective histories.

Throughout the year, Phylicia will engage with Library visitors through workshops, talks, and exhibitions, providing valuable insights into her creative approach.

Phylicia Ghee is an interdisciplinary visual artist, photographer and curator whose work documents transition, explores healing, rites-of-passage, ritual and genetic memory. Ghee thrives on creating immersive worlds that explore interiority, both physically and psychologically. Taught by her Grandfather at an early age; Ghee works in photography, performance, video, fibers, mixed media, installation & painting. She earned her BFA in Photography with a Concentration in Curatorial Studies from Maryland Institute College of Art in 2010.
