Eugenie Cha

Eugenie Cha (she/her) is a writer, interdisciplinary artist, and socially engaged practitioner. She works with text (narrative prose) and photography to investigate how people navigate displacement, environmental degradation, and the tensions between home, space, and memory. Drawing from both her lived experience as a US-born woman of Korean descent and more than a decade of domestic and international experience working with civil society organizations, activists, community advocates, and marginalized communities across West, Central, and East Africa, Eugenie believes that art and social practice are inextricably linked, and that mobilizing the resources and infrastructure needed for historically marginalized people to lead, create, and thrive is a precedent to a more just and inclusive civil society.

She holds a Master of Science in Migration Studies from the University of Oxford and a Bachelor of Arts in Literature and Africana Studies from Bard College. A contributing member of the Level Ground art collective, Eugenie has attended artist residencies in Finland and Morocco. She lives in Brooklyn, New York.
