Born in Montego Bay, Jamaica, and raised in Brooklyn, Weddemire brings more than 25 years of leadership experience in luxury, fashion, and interior design to the art world. Her gallery is anchored in community, culture, and legacy, with a commitment to expanding access, educating new collectors, and placing meaningful works in important private and institutional collections.
Under her leadership,
Tanya Weddemire Gallery has exhibited at major art fairs, including EXPO CHICAGO, SCOPE Art Show, 1-54 Contemporary African Art Fair, Atlanta Art Fair, Art on Paper New York, and the Affordable Art Fair. In September 2026, the gallery will make its highly anticipated debut at The Armory Show.

Through thoughtfully curated exhibitions, major art fairs, and collector-focused initiatives, Weddemire continues to create opportunities for artists while building a more transparent and inclusive art market.

Tatianna Mack is the dedicated Director at Tanya Weddemire Gallery. She cultivates and strengthens the connections among artists, collectors, and the community. With a profound appreciation for emerging talent and a commitment to fostering meaningful relationships, Tatianna advocates for intersectionality through diversity in her work.
In 2019, Tatianna launched her blog, The Art of Tati, to promote representation in art spaces. Since then, she has moderated conversations focused on artistry and the transformation of gallery culture and she has led community initiatives in partnership with esteemed organizations, including Black Girls in Art Spaces, A Place Called Home, and Industry City.
Tatianna's innate ability to envision and implement dynamic programming highlights her dedication to art beyond the gallery setting. In February 2025, she will debut as a curator with "I Got a Story to Tell," an all-women exhibition inspired by a conversation with her Grandmother. Guided by her passion for art, fashion, and community, Tatianna remains committed to cultivating a more inclusive and vibrant art world.
