Contemporary art can be hard to understand and the everyday person may feel ostracized from it. Instead of keeping the everyday person at a distance, inclusive contemporary art seeks to bring the everyday person into the artwork. By artists making inclusive artwork and audiences following the steps presented, both parties can have a more meaningful, memorable, and valuable contemporary art experience.

Her work has been shown in over forty exhibitions from Prague to New York to Utah. Her most recent exhibition, currently on display in the Museum of Art at Brigham Young University, is called We Revolve Ceaseless. Versatility is one of Frahm’s strong suits, shown by her work as a visual designer for an immersive dance performance, co-directing a modern dance company in Utah, and teaching sculpture at the Interlochen Center for the Arts. Frahm received her master of fine arts degree from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where she studied performance, video, sound, and installation art.
