She earned her BFA at The Cooper Union in New York City and MFA from The University of Michigan School of Art and Design as a Horace H. Rackham Fellow. Durrett has exhibited her work throughout the Washington\, DC area and nationally. She is currently a finalist in the National Portrait Gallery’s prestigious Outwin Boochever Portrait Competition and is featured in “The Outwin 2019: American Portraiture Today” exhibition. Recent installations include: “Up ‘til Now”\, a freestanding\, solar powered sculpture that evokes the history of Washington\, DC’s landscape and architecture in Washington’s Golden Triangle neighborhood; “Messages for the City” in collaboration with For Freedoms in Times Square\, New York; and a wall mounted public sculpture in the Liberty City community of Miami\, Florida made in collaboration with conceptual artist Hank Willis Thomas. She is currently in production on numerous projects including a permanent installation on the glass-walled vestibule in the newly renovated Martin Luther King\, Jr. Library in Washington. Her “Magnolia Project\,” a recent series of magnolia leaves perforated with the names of Black women murdered by police\, is featured in the Park Avenue Armory exhibition and archive “100 Years | 100 Women” curated by Deborah Willis. \n\nThank you to Allison Nance\, DC Chapter Programs Chair.
