More about Yaelle:
Yaelle moved to Portland in 2015 to serve as the Programs Curator at the photography nonprofit Newspace; later she co-curated the 2019 Portland Biennial and the inaugural year of exhibitions at University of Oregon’s Center for Art Research (2020-2021). Prior to moving to Portland, she spent 12 years in New York, trying on many hats in the arts ecosystem and beyond. In her ongoing writing and curatorial projects, she examines the ways in which the exhibition space can serve as a tool in community building, with a primary focus on artists whose practices supplement the initiatives of existing social movements.
When not at Miller, she spends time with her partner, two young kids and beloved pup Vinnie—experiencing art, swimming in the PNW’s many lakes and rivers, and carrying on a quest to find the region’s perfect pastries.
