Jon Veal is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice is based in ritual, forged by pedagogy, and motivated by personal theology. Jon Veal is using communal performances,image making, and poetry to unpack the politics of gender, while asking questions about race and the vestiges of injustice within the social fabric of America. Veal has shown work at Silent Funny, Dusable Museum, William Hill Gallery, and was commissioned by the Homewood Science Center for a public interactive work.
