About Saya Woolfalk
Saya Woolfalk (Japan, 1979) is a New York based artist who uses science fiction and fantasy to re-imagine the world in multiple dimensions.  With the multi year projects No Place, The Empathics, and ChimaTEK, Woolfalk has created the world of the Empathics, a fictional race of women who are able to alter their genetic make-up and fuse with plants. With each body of work, Woolfalk continues to build the narrative of these women's lives, and questions the utopian possibilities of cultural hybridity. She has exhibited widely across Asia, Europe, and the United States, with solo shows at the Montclair Art Museum, Chrysler Museum of Art, Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, SCAD Museum, Everson Museum of Art, Sheldon Museum of Art, and the Mead Museum of Art, and group shows at the Studio Museum in Harlem, MoMA PS1, Warhol Museum, and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago. Her works are in collections of the Whitney Museum, Mead Art Museum, Weatherspoon Art Museum, Newark Museum, Chrysler Museum, and Seattle Art Museum. Currently, her solo exhibitions are at the Nelson-Atkins Museum and Kohler Art Center. Woolfalk is the recipient of numerous honors, awards, and commissions. She has delivered numerous public lectures at museums and universities throughout the United States including a recent TED X Talk. She is represented by Leslie Tonkonow Artworks + Projects, New York and teaches in MFA program at Yale School of Art as well as in the BFA and MFA programs at Parsons: The New School for Design.
