Qualeasha Wood

Qualeasha Wood (born 1996) is an American textile artist. In textile works saturated with Internet-era iconography, Wood creates a bridge between craft and digital art. Her narrative tapestries, inspired by family history and a chance encounter with Faith Ringgold during her undergraduate years at the Rhode Island School of Design, are woven translations of Photoshop compositions, often foregrounding the artist's own image. In 2021–22, she was an artist in residence at the Studio Museum in Harlem. In 2024 she presented her first solo institutional exhibition, code_anima, at the Harvey B. Gantt Center for African-American Art + Culture, Charlotte, NC.
