PSDS is led by Mariel Reed, an artist and designer whose practice moves fluidly between art and spatial design. Her work spans research-based projects that explore race, memory & land. As well as art that spans portraiture, collage & experimental drawings that study form and human presences. Across mediums she used visual storytelling to examine how people, place & history shape one another.

Her practice is built on the belief that design should be a force for equity, resilience, and healing.
