Whitney Hubbs

Whitney Hubbs has a B.F.A. from the California College of the Arts and an M.F.A. from UCLA. Her most recent book, Say So, was published by Mack/SPBH Editions in 2021 and includes an accompanying essay by Chris Kraus. Through image-making, Hubbs projects her own interior, psychological landscapes onto her costumed body with a humor that is at once slapstick and macabre. Acting out humiliation and abjection, the work slyly performs both a confession and a critique.

Hubbs has exhibited both in the US and internationally, and her work is included in the permanent collections of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The J. Paul Getty Museum, and the California Museum of Photography. Additionally, her work has been included in publications such as Artforum, Bomb Magazine, Frieze, CARLA, The New Yorker, Aperture, Art in America, and Charlotte Cotton’s The Photograph as Contemporary Art. Hubbs is the Associate Director of Light Work in Syracuse, NY, and a part-time instructor at Syracuse University. Hubbs is represented by M+B Gallery in Los Angeles and Situations Gallery in New York City.
