Vernon was included in the 2013 group exhibition
Pattern Recognition at
MoCADA. In 2016 she presented the large installation
How Ghosts Sleep (Seattle) at the
Seattle Art Museum in 2016. She contributed to
Jeffrey Deitch's 2016
Coney Art Walls project. In September 2016, Vernon presented the installation
Rage Wave in a partner program between
Interstitial gallery in
Georgetown and the
Seattle Office of Arts & Culture. The work was featured in both Interstitial and Seattle Presents gallery. The multimedia piece involved xerox copies of photographs, drawings and writings exploring themes of systematic racism and exploitation in African American history. Vernon's often large-scale work draws on themes of oppression, nightmares, and memories. Vernon makes drawings, installations, paintings and sculptural components. Her installation and performances evoke African-American history through her exploration of personal narrative and identity. Vernon is an assistant professor at
Pratt Institute, where she teaches
drawing. ==References==
