CEAM Fall Artist Residency: Rafael Soldi

Rafael Soldi is a Peruvian­-born artist and independent curator based in Seattle, Washington that utilizes video, photography, installation, text and performance to comment on masculinity, language, immigration, violence, and memory, informed by his queer, Peruvian identity. Flagler College welcomes Soldi as the Crisp-Ellert Art Museum’s (CEAM) Artist-in-Residence from Saturday, November 16 through Saturday, November 30, 2024.

The artist blends personal history with collective memory to explore how gender expectations are deeply embedded in language and childhood games— and how they can be destabilized. His recent works implicate a type of masculinity that favors violence and erases the necessity of intimacy and connection.

During his residency, Soldi will work on his upcoming book, titled "Soft Boy," and engage with students and faculty through class visits, student critiques, and public programming.
