fields harrington Brooklyn-based artist whose practice spans sculpture, performance, video, photography, drawing, and writing. My work investigates the political, social, historical, and economic forces that shape the production of empirical knowledge, particularly within science. harrington critically examines how ideologies, such as racism and the financial logic of slavery, have influenced scientific practices that uphold systems of oppression. Through my practice, harrington aims to reveal intersections between knowledge production and the abstraction of power, challenging how knowledge is constructed, transmitted, and weaponized.
