CANDICE HICKS

Candace Hicks’ work examines gender, voice, and parallel universes through the analysis of fictional literature. Believing that the stories we tell each other can reveal our beliefs and biases, Hicks mines genre fictions to uncover the subtle ways that literature reflects inequalities. She has exhibited her work and installations at Lawndale Art Center in Houston, Living Arts in Tulsa, Ivester Contemporary and Women & Their Work in Austin, The Contemporary at Blue Star in San Antonio, and beyond. Her artist’s books are in collections including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, the Bainbridge Museum, the Spencer Museum of Art, and universities, including Harvard, Yale, and Stanford.
