Meadow Cloud (he/him) is an Afro-Latin trans non-binary mixed-media and performance artist. His work has grown between the unceded soils colloquially known as Los Angeles and Brooklyn, on Tongva and Lenape Territory. The essence of Cloud’s environment has always served as a source of inspiration for his work as a conversation between guides and principles that are known and new to him. He hopes to continue harvesting conversations with my community members that hold space for expressing their current embodiments in space.
Cloud is currently an undergraduate student at The New School in New York City, graduating in the spring of 2023 with a Bachelor in Fine Arts in Dramatic Arts. He works in many forms of meaning-making through roles of creative director/production manager, crochet, movement, vocalist, writer, music arrangement/production and actor. Cloud’s focus in his current embodiment has been on the intersections of art and writing in communications with environmentalism, societal gender norms/breaking binaries and disability justice.
His playground of learning and unlearning sprouts between and outside of his institutional experiences. Leaning into the near future of completing his degree, Cloud hopes to showcase his time in college through a research-movement-vocal-based performance piece on how exposure to environmental violence (climate and social) and environmental joy + accessibility affects queer Black, Indigenous and people of color (BIPOC) community members.
