Murray-Wassink, Sands (1974 - )
A queer cult figure in the Amsterdam art scene for nearly two decades, Murray- Wassink is a painter, body artist, writer and perfume collector indebted to various forms and permutations of intersectional feminist and queer art, with artists Carolee Schneemann, Hannah Wilke and Adrian Piper serving as key coordinates.
Recent exhibitions include Auto Italia, London (January 2022), Rijksakademie (2021) and mistral (Amsterdam, 2021), all as part of Gift Science Archive (GSA); a project commissioned by If I Can’t Dance (Amsterdam). After studying at the Pratt Institute (1992-1994) in Brooklyn, Murray-Wassink moved to the Netherlands in 1994 for an exchange program at the Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam. For the next two full years (1995-1996) he studied at De Ateliers, Amsterdam, where he lives and works since then.
