In keeping with the theme of water I decided to freeze hair, nails and skin from several people in blocks of ice. I suspended the blocks of ice from the rafters and let them slowly melt into a drinking vessel. The space was dark except for a single red light to create an intimate atmosphere. I renamed the piece What Will Become of Us. Hoping to encourage thoughts about what becomes of our DNA holding cells when they leave the body and consider ultimately what becomes of us all when we die. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1558707598123-86995QVQ96MUHGTR5CDM/DSC_0142.jpg What Will Be Left of Me (After Adrian Piper) https://www.annahelgeson.com/new-blog daily 0.75 2020-09-01 https://www.annahelgeson.com/new-blog/2020/9/1/alternate-roots monthly 0.5 2020-09-01 https://www.annahelgeson.com/new-blog/2019/5/29/the-myth-of-the-individual monthly 0.5 2020-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1598992822785-8HNY1IMHMH0EIFMLGGI6/IMG_6558.jpg New Blog - The Myth of the Individual https://www.annahelgeson.com/new-blog/2019/5/28/100-rejections monthly 0.5 2019-06-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1559082216764-S2MBGIX1GKCYJ5N80K1P/Partonforblog.jpg New Blog - 100 Rejections https://www.annahelgeson.com/work daily 1.0 2026-03-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1500424085344-O6QLL548E807ZY2YBWE2/Betty+5.jpg Work - The Lady Vanishes https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1669746794768-DPEGTRQY7DKTLZKTDVOR/FrostSparkle.jpg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1713784072941-9PH2EPN6HBKFDJU44X48/image-asset.jpeg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1731878743297-5DFYAUHZG9NWWDQC04I7/Float.jpg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1759933299738-HORXFR852VRAEHVTO0WJ/IMG_6163.jpg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1769467792599-60JWQ3DAJI2UVRB8JN4Y/5pm+whitey+fadding.jpeg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1576532209305-YT0Q9G40PYXD883ZH28G/IMG_0163.JPG Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1499946422316-LRCC0HXB3TUVGZ3LQ1S9/EmancipationSmall.jpg Work - Emancipation Drip Emancipation Drip is a performance about the construction of race in American and is part of the ongoing Whitey Series by artist Anna Helgeson.

A lovely little reflection on Karen Karnes and her pots. But who wants to be respectable at a time like this? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1615474206039-LJ35RXSVRIEQCSGND8FR/Screen+Shot+2021-03-11+at+9.49.41+AM.png Writing - Different Strokes! Recently the plane of Earth’s equator passed through the center of the sun. The vernal equinox marks the beginning of spring in the northern hemisphere, a time of renewal and fresh starts. Tiny flowers start to appear announcing their readiness to be pollinated, the days get longer, and the weight of winter starts to lift. Not all beginnings are so gentle, some fucking suck. Like starting chemotherapy, or starting a second job because your first one doesn’t pay the bills. And some are unperceivable from the outside, they take place entirely in the mind; a shift in perspective, a dislodging of an old belief, a new provocation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1615474024188-P4Y43836SDX8ZKNGV7FI/Screen+Shot+2021-03-11+at+9.47.01+AM.png Writing - Meta Commerse Meta Commerse is a force; a meteor created by the powerful explosion that was the black arts movement in Chicago during the 1960s. Her official bio reads: founder of Story Medicine, certified wellness practitioner, author, seasoned teacher, and healer focused deeply on issues of oppression since the early 1990s. She has worked with groups and individuals using story medicine in numerous formats. She's a proud graduate of Goddard College in Vermont where she earned her MFA in fiction writing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1615473627513-K44O156G33XPIS014JMG/lydia.see-theCabbageSchool005.jpg Writing - Cabbage School “Don’t be scared, just put it in first gear and gun it!” Lydia See (one of The Cabbage School founders) instructs me as I arrive at the intimidatingly steep driveway of the Cabbage School, located about 30 minutes from Asheville, down a few windy roads in Little Sandy Mush, North Carolina. Maybe it’s the sun pouring in through my rolled down window or the bucolic field of sheep in the periphery, but I am tempted to take this as life advice as well, to set aside fear and move bravely forward. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1615472064393-JSFW7293APYI6TO8355X/image-asset.jpeg Writing - Alternate Roots The morning after Trump was elected I woke in a cold sweat, with puffy eyes and a life-changing decision: I will quit all creative pursuits and become a lawyer. The United States is fucked and more than art we need litigation. As the day wore on, I slowly remembered all the reasons I would not become a lawyer–no money for law school, a disdain for logic and legalese, my disinterest in looking professional, etc. As that idea quickly faded, it was replaced with just a question: Does art really matter? https://www.annahelgeson.com/new-page-2 daily 0.75 2020-09-07 https://www.annahelgeson.com/great-again-1 daily 0.75 2022-10-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1590594985799-G9O158BXC8DG0AZX19OB/Russia.jpg Great Again - Russia (Copy) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1590594851032-S706KJ2M1Q5EJHP1ENF9/Menu.jpg Great Again - Menu https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1590594806619-RATYTNLJ1W0NMDRADZ2S/Ashtray.jpg Great Again - Ashtray https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1590594825382-QS2A0R1FLF05W8P9VTYA/Golliwog.jpg Great Again - Golliwog https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1590594870412-092UM5EE67P4BLVHWSFD/MsPiggy.jpg Great Again - Ms. Piggy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1590594893479-RAJGLX7SYAHAHDTLO27K/RareFind.jpg Great Again - Rare Find https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1590594911509-P4LU6YA0LQX3T54MJPOD/Barbiewigs.jpg Great Again - Barbie Wigs https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1590594933159-WSC78A6KQE04RB1OIDVG/PicturesqueAmerica.jpg Great Again - Picturesque America https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1590594947369-9AOUMQ7YYP1R4FPVB86Q/Injun.jpg Great Again - Injun https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1590594963426-TYOEV23CC3GTP2RI4ZA2/TheBand.jpg Great Again - The Band https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1590594985799-G9O158BXC8DG0AZX19OB/Russia.jpg Great Again - Russia https://www.annahelgeson.com/new-page-20 daily 0.75 2026-03-04 https://www.annahelgeson.com/yoga-december19 daily 0.75 2020-11-30 https://www.annahelgeson.com/yoga-1 daily 0.75 2022-07-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1608209003662-TDA9PBSSZPI0YEVUVOVP/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-09-15%2Bat%2B4.00.38%2BPM.jpg Yoga https://www.annahelgeson.com/yoga-january9 daily 0.75 2020-11-30 https://www.annahelgeson.com/press daily 0.75 2021-03-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1615135216772-PS7JQXBKFLJ53R7DFSYF/Screen+Shot+2021-03-04+at+9.49.24+AM.png Press - Center for Craft https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1615135208527-IKXETUW02JN95GU9BR0H/Screen+Shot+2021-03-04+at+9.52.25+AM.png Press - Creative Mornings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1615135203658-OJMVFGZY758GOO1LQD2Q/Screen+Shot+2021-03-04+at+9.48.02+AM.png Press - Mountain XPress: Five-day photo+sphere Pairs Art and Science https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1615135175244-LXOYLYPJDC72QTJ22YD4/Screen+Shot+2021-03-07+at+11.24.00+AM.png Press - New Haven Register : Performance Artist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1615135181856-H4CHZ0QUZIYQWHH3YGQR/Screen+Shot+2021-03-04+at+10.19.46+AM.png Press - Mountain XPress: Window (re/production | re/presentation) Panel Discussion https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/596751ad9de4bb80c094d640/1615135194552-6A07OCHII4ARTL6WFTU8/Screen+Shot+2021-03-04+at+9.55.59+AM.png Press - Asheville Made: Artisan-Career Venue Spin Beer City into Craft City
