Artist Registry
The White Columns Curated Artist Registry is an online platform for emerging and under-recognized artists to share images and information about their respective practices. The Registry seeks to create a context for artists who have yet to benefit from wider critical, curatorial or commercial support. To be eligible, artists cannot be affiliated with a commercial gallery in New York City.

STATEMENT OF WORK
Cecilia Caldeira is a New York City–based artist whose practice is informed by research into thresholds shaped by urban planning, ritual, and language systems that quietly organize bodies and materials in space. She investigates how these frameworks regulate movement and inform navigation of the built environment. In her work, material becomes choreography, emphasizing and extending gestures inherent to spatial perception. This framework allows space to ponder displacement, transformation, and cycles of renewal, and to create systems in which the public is aware that they are both viewers and participants.
