The Laundromat Project and SUPERFRONT Gallery partner to present the 2009 Create Change Artist Residency Program exhibition. This year’s artists, Carlos Martinez, Michael Premo, and Tracee Worley, have leveraged the space of local laundromats to engage their neighbors in a process of public art making that ranges from multimedia installation to an anonymous hotline for airing out “dirty laundry.”

The exhibition will be open to the public from Saturday, October 17 to Saturday, December 12, 2009.

  • CARLAGIRL PHOTO was founded on 14 February 1999 by Carla Willliams, a photographer, writer, and editor, born, raised and heading back to (yea!) Los Angeles, California.

    It was established with two goals: to be able to make my own work widely available for free, and to make accessible my research about artists of the African Diaspora, especially photographers, and in particular women. As it developed it grew to also include GLBTQ artists.
