WNYC
Alison Stewart, WNYC, 20 June 2026

Harlem-based artist Kim Dacres makes her sculptures with metal and rubber from recycled tires, often sourcing from bike shops around her neighborhood. A new exhibit at Charles Moffett presents her latest works, inspired by her experiences living in the United States over the last 18 months, as well as her favorite classic love songs, including Stevie Wonder's "As." Kim Dacres discusses what's on view in the solo show, ',' on view at 394 Broadway through June 20.
