Meet ✨ Shayla Marshall, a finalist in ✨ Pathways 2026: The Carlos Malamud Prize.
 
A contemporary mixed-media artist working between Miami and London, Marshall uses world-building to imagine new histories and futures through storytelling, memory, and identity. Drawing from her upbringing in Miami’s culturally rich Black communities, her immersive works explore belonging, visibility, and self-definition.
 
“My practice uses world-building as a tool for liberation, challenging the linearity of time to explore the complexities of history and identity.”
 
Born in Miami, Florida, Marshall holds an MA in Contemporary Art Practice from the Royal College of Art in London. Her work has been exhibited at institutions including the Saatchi Gallery and Greenspace Miami, and she is a recipient of the Miami-Dade County Artist Grant.

Meet ✨Ebenezer Nketsiah Mensah, a finalist in ✨Pathways 2026: The Carlos Malamud Prize.

A multidisciplinary artist whose work is shaped by his experience as a former gold miner and construction worker in Ghana, Mensah explores labor, migration, and identity through sculpture and installation. His practice reflects on the physical and emotional realities of work, while honoring the resilience of the communities connected to it.

Using found and industrial materials, Mensah transforms personal and collective histories into powerful visual narratives rooted in memory, survival, and belonging.

“My work is deeply informed by lived experience, using material and process to speak to labor, movement, and the human condition.”
