    About the Artist:


    Los Angeles–based artist Mandy Harris Williams seeks to get everybody the love they deserve, through creative, informational, and deconstructive gestures that span multiple mediums — including the hashtag #BrownUpYourFeed, a call to awareness and action.


    She encourages users of social media to consider attention economies as they map on to previous economies of representation and surveillance, asking, does our behavior online align with our personal and community value systems?
