Dizzy Dain, Curator and Creative Director, is based in Atlanta GA and is all about community engagement and mental wealth. Dizzy works alongside numerous organizations, curating exhibits, mural initiatives, and community service projects. Some of which include partnerships with Old Rabbit Gallery, LVRN Studios, Westside Future Fund, and Pandora Music. Dizzy’s curatorial themes coincide with the human experience in every way. She uses life as the blueprint to her choices of subject matter and narratives. Whether it’s vanity, grief, insecurity, or joy, Dizzy captures the essence of these traits to form a cohesive body of work that can continue in conversation since we all experience similar traits in different ways. This becomes proof that we are not alone in our human experience. This also gives artists the opportunity to transcend their work beyond the walls of her exhibits, living in unexpected rooms due to the ongoing intrigue of viewers. Everyone can find themselves in the stories and images placed in a Dizzy Dain Curation.
