Shona McAndrew
Shona McAndrew (b. 1990) was born in Paris and lives and works in Philadelphia.

She has also exhibited in group shows at Nassima Landau, Tel Aviv, IL; the New York Academy of Art, New York, NY; wallspaceplease, Dubai, UAE; Newchild Gallery, Antwerp, BE; Kunstraum Potsdam, Potsdam, DE; Lyles & King, New York, NY, Taymour Grahne Projects, London, UK; Stems Gallery, Brussels, BE; Mindy Solomon Gallery, Miami, FL; Allouche Benias Gallery, Athens, GR; and Museum of Sex, New York, NY.
