Carrie Mae Weems (born April 20, 1953) is an American artist working in text, fabric, audio, digital images and installation video, and is best known for her photography.[1][2] She achieved prominence through her early 1990s photographic project The Kitchen Table Series. Her photographs, films and videos focus on serious issues facing African Americans today, including racism, sexism, politics and personal identity.
She once said, "Let me say that my primary concern in art, as in politics, is with the status and place of Afro-Americans in the country."[3] More recently, however, she expressed the view that "Black experience is not really the main point; rather, complex, dimensional, human experience and social inclusion ... is the real point."[4] She continues to produce art that provides social commentary on the experiences of people of color, especially black women, in America.[1]
Her talents have been recognized by Harvard University and Wellesley College, with fellowships, artist-in-residence and visiting professor positions. She taught photography at Hampshire College in the late 1980s and shot the "Kitchen Table" series in her home in Western Massachusetts. Weems is one of six artist-curators who made selections for Artistic License: Six Takes on the Guggenheim Collection, at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in 2019/20.[5] She is artist in residence at Syracuse University.[6]

Transcription
[Carrie Mae Weems: "The Kitchen Table Series"] About 1990, I think... I had been working away, living in this small town, and had been really thinking a lot about what it meant to... what it meant to sort of develop your own voice. And so, I made this body of work, "The Kitchen Table Series". It started in a curious way as a kind of response to my own sense of what needed to happen-- what needed to be. And what would not be simply a voice for African American women, but what would be a voice, more generally, for women. I made them all in my own kitchen-- all in my own house-- using a single light source, hanging over the kitchen table. It just sort of swung open, this door of possibility, of what I could actually do in my own environment, whenever I chose, and which ever way I wanted, at this very specific... or in this very particular place, spot, and moment in time. I love this series. This is actually a platinum series. I think these ideas about the spaces of domesticity that have historically belonged to women-- and it is the site of the battle around the family, the battle around monogamy, the battle around polygamy, the battle between the sexes-- it's going to be played out, really, in that space. It's this sort of, begging the question of, "How do we begin to alter the domestic space--" "the social living arrangement," "the social contract--" "how does that get changed?" What I'm suggesting is that the sort of war that gets carried on-- and I think it is a war-- how do we manipulate and control one another and/or participate with one another to sort of share in those possibilities in those differences. The social dynamics that happens between men and women, that women hold the key to the bedroom, and the keys to the generations, while men, of course, hold the keys to power.
Biography
Early life and education (1953–1980)
Weems was born in Portland, Oregon in 1953, the second of seven children to Carrie Polk and Myrlie Weems.[7] She began participating in dance and street theater in 1965.[1] At the age of 16, she gave birth to her only child, a daughter named Faith C. Weems.[8]
Later that year (1970), she moved out of her parents' home and soon relocated to San Francisco[9] to study modern dance with Anna Halprin at a workshop Halprin had started with several other dancers, as well as the artists John Cage and Robert Morris.[10] Weems recalled, "I started dancing with the famous and extraordinary Anna Halprin. I was in Anna's company for I suppose, maybe a year or two…experimenting with very deep parts of dance and ideas about dance. Anna was really interested in ideas about peace and using dance as a way to bridge different cultures together as a vehicle for multicultural expression...I wasn't really so interested in dance, I just knew how to dance really well. I had a really, I think, deep sense of my body from a very early age."[9] Thirty years later in 2008, Weems circled back to dance in her project Constructing History: A Requiem to Mark the Moment, at the Savannah College of Art and Design in Atlanta, noting "I'm just beginning this project of looking at blues and flamenco, and ideas about dance and movement."[9]
She decided to continue her arts schooling and attended the California Institute of the Arts, in the Los Angeles metro, graduating at the age of 28 with a BFA degree. She received her MFA from the University of California, San Diego.[11] Weems also participated in the folklore graduate program at the University of California, Berkeley.[12]
While in her early twenties, Weems was politically active in the labor movement as a union organizer.[1] Her first camera, which she received as a birthday gift,[13] was used for this work before being used for artistic purposes. She was inspired to pursue photography after coming across The Black Photographers Annual, a book of images by African-American photographers including Shawn Walker, Beuford Smith, Anthony Barboza, Ming Smith, Adger Cowans and Roy DeCarava.[14] This led her to New York City and the Studio Museum in Harlem, where she began to meet other artists and photographers such as Coreen Simpson and Frank Stewart, and they began to form a community. In 1976, Weems took a photography class at the Museum taught by Dawoud Bey and earned money as an assistant to Anthony Barboza.[15] She returned to San Francisco, but lived bi-coastally and was invited by Janet Henry to teach at the Studio Museum[16] and a community of photographers in New York.[14]
1980–2000

In 1983, Weems completed her first collection of photographs, text and spoken word, called Family Pictures and Stories.[17] The images told the story of her family, and she has said that in this project she was trying to explore the movement of black families out of the South and into the North, using her family as a model for the larger theme.[14] Her next series, called Ain't Jokin', was completed in 1988. It focused on racial jokes and internalized racism. Another series called American Icons, completed in 1989, also focused on racism. Weems has said that throughout the 1980s she was turning away from the documentary photography genre, instead "creating representations that appeared to be documents but were in fact staged" and also "incorporating text, using multiples images, diptychs and triptychs, and constructing narratives."[14] Sexism was the next focal point for her. It was the topic of one of her most well known collections called The Kitchen Table series which was completed over a two-year period (1989 to 1990), and has Weems cast as the central character in the photographs.[13][18][19] About Kitchen Table and Family Pictures and Stories, Weems has said: "I use my own constructed image as a vehicle for questioning ideas about the role of tradition, the nature of family, monogamy, polygamy, relationships between men and women, between women and their children, and between women and other women—underscoring the critical problems and the possible resolves."[14] She has expressed disbelief and concern about the exclusion of images of the black community, particularly black women, from the popular media, and she aims to represent these excluded subjects and speak to their experience through her work. These photographs created space for other black female artists to further create art. Weems has also reflected on the themes and inspirations of her work as a whole, saying,
... from the very beginning, I've been interested in the idea of power and the consequences of power; relationships are made and articulated through power. Another thing that's interesting about the early work is that even though I've been engaged in the idea of autobiography, other ideas have been more important: the role of narrative, the social levels of humor, the deconstruction of documentary, the construction of history, the use of text, storytelling, performance, and the role of memory have all been more central to my thinking than autobiography.[14]
2000–present

Weems remains active in the art world with her recent photographic project such as Louisiana Project (2003), Roaming (2006), Museums (2006), Constructing History (2008), African Jewels (2009), Mandingo (2010), Slow Fade to Black (2010), Equivalents (2012), Blue Notes (2014–2015) and the expanded bodies of works including installation, mixed media, and video project.[20][13][21][22] Her recent project, Grace Notes: Reflections for Now, is a multimedia performance that explores "the role of grace in the pursuit of democracy."[23] Her recent work Slow Fade to Black (2010) explores the lost image and memory of African-American female entertainers, including singers, dancers, and actresses, in the twentieth century by playing on the idea of cinematic fade. The freeze frame of a camera lens makes it impossible for us to tell whether or not those images are fading in or fading outs.[24] The series of photos features a number of prominent female African-American artists from the last century, such as Marian Anderson and Billie Holiday, who faded out of our collective memory.[24] The blurred images of the artists serves as metaphor of the on-going struggle for African-American entertainers to remain visible and relevant. In 2023 Weems became the first black woman to win the Hasselblad Award.[25]

For the season 2020/2021 at the Vienna State Opera Weems designed the large-scale picture (176 sqm) Queen B (Mary J. Blige) as part of the exhibition series Safety Curtain, conceived by museum in progress.[26]
In 2024, Bottega Veneta commissioned Weems to create an ad campaign that starred the rapper A$AP Rocky and his sons.[27]
