T.J. Dedeaux-Norris Exhibition at Galleria Mimmo Scognamiglio in Milan

exhibition · 2026-05-04

American artist T.J. Dedeaux-Norris (born 1979) presents a solo exhibition at Galleria Mimmo Scognamiglio in Milan. The show centers on her official name change from Tameka Jenean Norris to T.J. Dedeaux-Norris, a turning point influenced by her nomadic lifestyle across countries. Works are composed primarily of printed fabrics, textiles, clippings from old photographs, and letters. A recurring motif is a net painted on both fragments of works and sections of the gallery walls, emphasizing themes of boundaries and what the artist describes as 'feeling in-between.' The installation creates a self-contained microcosm where viewers experience the artist's past and present.
