Swoon is an internationally recognized artist whose work has been exhibited at major institutions including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), Tate Modern, and the Brooklyn Museum. Emerging from the early street art movement in the late 1990s, she helped redefine what public art could be, bringing hand-cut wheatpaste portraits, intimate narratives, and a deeply human presence into urban space
Working across printmaking, drawing, installation, and large-scale public projects, Swoon’s practice is rooted in storytelling, empathy, and social engagement. Her work often centers on lived experience, community, and ritual, blurring the boundaries between fine art, street art, and activism. Whether installed in museums or pasted onto city walls, her figures carry a quiet gravity, tender, resilient, and enduring
