Her work is informed by the omnipresence of data, information, media, and how its images condition our bodies and language. Brown builds new characters, expansive fictional worlds, and unexpected linguistic relationships in order to untangle internalized racism and sexism within the mind of herself and audience. Fluctuating between humor and seriousness, the work opens up a space for spirited examination, often drawing on family history and current, and historical events.\u0026nbsp; Her work plays with the scale of personal and emotional experience in relation to large scale systems of social and economic organization.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eBrown has performed and exhibited work at the New Museum, the High Line, the International Center of Photography, Recess, and The Kitchen in New York; REDCAT Theater and The Hammer Museum in Los Angeles; The Baltimore Museum of Art in Baltimore; and at the Munch Museum in Oslo, Norway.
