Rhiannon Evans MacFadyen is a curator, consultant, project-based artist, and a San Francisco native with over 15 years of in-depth experience in the performing and visual arts. Inspired by productive discomfort, her curatorial focus is on projects that push formal and contextual boundaries and her cross-discipline personal work engages symbols, identity, communication, and the unseen. Founder of A Simple Collective and the experimental project space Black & White Projects, Rhiannon has curated exhibitions and presented work nationally, including USF’s Thacher Gallery, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and Root Division in San Francisco, SCOPE in New York, and Pro Arts in Oakland. She has been featured in the San Francisco Chronicle, KQED Arts, SF Weekly, The New Asterisk Magazine, SFArts, and Art Practical, among other publications. Deeply involved with community-building through the arts, she is on the Advisory Board for the Women’s Environmental Artist Directory, the Curatorial Committee for Root Division, and the Advisory Committee for Sites Unseen, and is a career coach for artists and creative entrepreneurs. Rhiannon is also a founding member of Pacific Felt Factory and Co-Director of Emerging Arts Professionals San Francisco/Bay Area.
