In X-ray Vision vs. Invisibility, Noelle Mason delves into the nuanced interplay between surveillance and anonymity, control and vulnerability. Utilizing an array of non-digital media—such as cyanotype, embroidery, and tintype—Mason reinterprets images traditionally bound to technology and authority. This body of work investigates how visual technologies shape our perception of reality, blurring the lines between observation and objectification, documentation and intrusion.

Noelle Mason jumps out of airplanes. Her practice incorporates photography, craft, and performance to expose how individual responses to collective trauma are shaped.

Mason was awarded both the 2017 Southern Prize Fellowship in Atlanta and the 2016 First Place Florida Prize in Contemporary Art. She has also been the recipient of a Joan Mitchell Foundation Grant, a Jerome Fellowship, and the Illinois Arts Council International Artist Grant. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally in a variety of non-traditional art spaces, galleries, and institutions, including the National Museum of Mexican Art and the Smithsonian Institute. Mason is the director and curator of Parallelogram, an alternative exhibition space in Tampa. She has participated in residencies at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, Franconia Sculpture Park and at 1a Space in Hong Kong. She holds a BA in both Theatre and Fine Arts from the University of California, Irvine and an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
