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
Cherry Nin is an artist in New York primarily making movies. Driven by an ongoing investigation of video as a tool for transformation, and a devout commitment to art making as spiritual endeavor, Nin’s projects situate the hyper-real, the underground, the unseen, and the in-between as sites of play, possibility, and refuge for gendered and sexualized people.
Nin is a recipient of the Leeway Foundation's Art & Change Grant and the Philadelphia Independent Media Fund. Past residencies include KAJE, the Wexner Center for the Arts, and Outpost Artist Resources. Their work has recently been presented at Ann Arbor Film Festival, the Wexner Center for the Arts, Spectacle Theater, Time & Space Limited, re:assemblage collective's Diffusion Film Festival, The Kitchen, Millennium Film Workshop, and Vox Populi. Nin is the founder of Krissy Talking Pictures, a video art collective creating opportunities for queer artists. They hold an MFA in Moving Image from Bard College.
