Wiggins works from her home state of Colorado as a new media artist, sculptor, public artist and cultural organizer. She is a founding member of the 6+ art collective, a group that facilitates exhibitions, publications, and workshops among women artists internationally.

Wiggins’ work is both reflective and participatory and is centered around explorations of social justice and environmental and women’s issues. Her practice is concerned with art as a transformative and relational process and enactment. In the last several years Wiggins has been working in the Middle East as an artist and arts organizer. In a recent project, Crossing Over the Land, Wiggins created a series of narrative portraits in the occupied territories of Palestine. In the work, Sounds of the Ocean, Wiggins interviewed people in both the U.S. and the Middle East by transporting questions back and forth and creating a form of dialogue and thoughtful observation.  In the project Carbon Portraits for the exhibition “Weather Report: Art and Climate Change” (curated by Lucy R. Lippard,) Wiggins asks participants to examine their own consumption patterns and personal relationship to global warming by calculating their carbon footprint.

Wiggins’ large-scale installation projects examine our relationship to the landscape and the environment in works that invoke intimacy and physical connection to specific surroundings. In digital and video pieces, Wiggins often places herself in relationship to female film stars and popular female figures such as Simone de Beauvoir, Ava Gardner and Jane Fonda. In this way, the work prompts viewers and participants alike to reflect upon themselves and others in open-ended narratives and situations.

Wiggins exhibits nationally and internationally - recent exhibitions include the International Incheon Women’s Biennial in Incheon, Korea; the International Center of Bethlehem in Bethlehem in the West Bank;  the Bronx Museum in New York; the Glass Curtain Gallery in Chicago, Illinois and the Galleria Zapata in Oaxaca, Mexico. Additionally, Wiggins has major outdoor works at the Denver International Airport in Denver, Colorado and in Cherry Creek in Denver, Colorado, as well as in private collections.
