Natasha Wheat
Natasha Wheat is an interdisciplinary artist who lives and works in the United States. Her works have been described as situational constructions, often transforming her audience into co-participants in the work. She is the founder of Portland, Oregon based arts and urban farming project, Project Grow, an arts atelier for people with disabilities at the site of a factory. It began in 2008 as an intervention into sweatshop type labor at a factory where the people with disabilities were working. Wheat's longtime boyfriend is artist Jim Fairchild.
