Announcing NMR’s 2022 Artist in Residence

Written By Wesley R. Bishop

NMR is a shared space among academics, artists, and activists to highlight and discuss their work. The artist in residence is chosen each year to share their work with the journal's readership. Their work will be featured both in the print journal and website.

The 2022 artist in residence is Iridessence.

Iridessence is a model, self-portraitist and performer artist based in Chicago, IL. Her work often features vintage, theatrical and historical themes and marries them to radical self-love in a socio-political scape that marginalizes people of size and color.
