New Project Residencies

Funded by a Grant from the National Endowment for the Arts

The Residency program places visual and performing artists in the community, conducting interactive art engagements. Residencies will include, but are not limited to, expansion of the Torpedo Factory Art Center’s Post Grad Residencies, Site See, the City’s Mobile Art Lab, as well as new locations including hospitals and senior centers. The guiding principle of the Residency Program is equity, ensuring all residents of Alexandria have equitable access to arts and culture while presenting programs that will equitably employ artists. A second guiding principle is creating meaningful relationships with the community. The two principles will inform the locations of art programs serving communities in Alexandria where there are less arts and culture programs and connecting artists directly with community members.

Lex Marie

Lex Marie (b. 1992: Prince Georges County, MD) is a multidisciplinary artist who creates paintings, sculptures and installations that reflect many of her own individual experiences yet encompasses the experiences of many in the African diaspora. Marie’s most recent works focus on the many issues Black children can face in their childhood such as adultification biases, food insecurity, discipline and the many issues within American school systems as seen in her second solo exhibition Let Them Kids Be Kids which opened in Arlington, VA at the Museum of Contemporary Art Arlington in 2022. Her work has been curated into group exhibitions including Stories From My Childhood (NIU Art Museum, DeKalb, IL 2022); Cumberland Valley Juried Exhibition (Washington County Museum of Fine Arts, Hagerstown, MD, 2022); Future Places (Susquehanna Art Museum, Harrisburg, PA, 2022); Rooted in Voyage (Band of Vices, Los Angeles, CA, 2022); We Can’t Predict Tomorrow (Museum of Contemporary Art Arlington, VA, 2021) and FRESH START by McCall Art Advisory (online, 2021). Marie holds a BA in studio art with a concentration in painting from the University of Maryland, College Park. She lives and works in the metropolitan DC area

Saya Behnam

Saya Behnam is an Iranian-American artist with more than 20 years of experience in fine art. She lives in Virginia, and her studio is at Torpedo Factory Art Center in Alexandria, VA.

Her art practice is inspired by nature. She believes in and practices Biophilic Design, which recognizes how much human physical and mental well-being relies on the quality of our relationships with the natural world.

By using natural elements and inspiration from nature, she likes to juxtapose time and space, birth and death, and sacred or fractal geometry patterns observed in natural forms for the structures of growth, energy, decay, chaos, and order.

By creating her handmade colors and inks from minerals, fresh or dried flowers, spices, plants, earth stones, and other pigments —the medium intelligence, an essential aspect of her creative process—they aren't just mediums. Those are parts of places and time.

Furthermore, they produce different colors in response to weather, soil, and location. Since they are specific to the moment, time, and environment they were created, each is unique and can never be replicated. They become singular visual aesthetic records of that unique location and time.

Bex Novak

Bex desperately needs help with a new music playlist - she’s been listening to the same one for nearly a decade - eeeek! But luckily other things come easier to her - she is a performing artist, an engineer, a stand-up comedian, and a yogi.

She’s been painting people for nearly two decades. Her experience ranges from studying at the World Body painting Academy in Austria, to painting at the NYC Body painting festival, to winning 2nd place at the Living Art America Championship, to much more in between. Her award winning piece "Namaste", is currently on display at the Smithsonian's Ripley Center in Washington, DC.

Bex also had a new found love for public speaking and storytelling. She feels incredibly alive on stage, and her goal is to connect and inspire audiences. She is a member of Toastmasters International, and has recently told stories with Story Extreme, Story District, the DC Improv, and Perfect Liars Club in Washington, DC.

Hawkins began his music career as a trumpet player in his high school band. After switching to trombone, he finally settled on bass guitar. At 15, he began to work professionally in his native Alexandria, Va. By 16, he was leading his own band and performing regularly in the Washington, D.C., area. Upon receiving a full scholarship, Hawkins studied music at Virginia State University.

Internationally, Hawkins has toured and performed with some of the biggest names in music. Hawkins has toured abroad in Japan, Russia, Ukraine, China, Germany, Italy, Canada and Scandinavia.

Samuel "Sami" Miranda grew up in the South Bronx and resides in Washington, DC. He is a visual artist, poet, and teacher who uses his craft to highlight the value of everyday people and places. His work is heavily influenced by Puerto Rican culture and family history, as well as his interactions with his students, people he encounters in his travels, and DC locals.

He is the author of Protection from Erasure, published by Jaded Ibis Press, Departure, a chapbook published by Central Square Press, and We Is, published by Zozobra Publishing. He is currently working on collaborative projects with musicians and visual artists about the deep connections they can make through their artwork.

6 - 9 pm

Aniekan Udofia

Aniekan Udofia has built up a formidable reputation as a powerful Painter and illustrator. Whether through multi-layered compositional complexity and suggestive narrative or straightforward human form, there is often autobiographical narrative at play.

Udofia garnered national attention in the early 2000s with his illustrations, working for publications such as XXL, Vibe, DC Pulse, Frank151, While You Were Sleeping, and The Source.

In recent years he has become well known for his many vibrant murals around Washington DC with quite a solid clientele list, including Toyota, American Express, the Office of Unified Communications, Murals DC, the Museum of Public Art, and a host of small businesses and property owners.

His murals share the rich history and culture of the different communities they are created in, whether it's the gagged George Washington on 15th and U Street or the very bright and colorful Marvin Gaye in the Shaw area of Washington DC, and his most famous Ben's Chili Bowl mural, Udofia's public works speak for themselves.

Aniekan lives and works in his studio in the Adams Morgan area of Washington DC.
