Artistic practice

Rodriguez' work investigates the relationship of the material and social conditions through which art is produced, reproduced, and consumed. Rodriquez works in a spectrum of materials from cinema to photography to sculpture.[3] Often, her exhibitions present complex and at times personal narratives that investigate the dynamics in play between artist, audience, and institution.[3] She was a core member of Reena Spaulings Fine Art, New York from 2004 to 2015.[4]
