"In September, the Women Photographers International Archive (WOPHA) opened its first physical space at Green Space Miami on the city's Upper East Side. Founded by the curator Aldeide Delgado and the artist Francisco Masó in 2018, WOPHA is dedicated to researching, promoting, supporting and educating the public about the contributions to Modern and contemporary art of women and non-binary photographers. Following several years of nomadic collaborations with institutions in the US and abroad, WOPHA has established a home for its exhibitions, as well as space for its public library, archive and community programmes."
"The Green Family Foundation Trust, which has worked with WPHA for years, owns Green Space Miami and is lending its space to the photography organisation until December 2026. "Women Photographers International Archive fills a critical void in the field of photography," Delgado says, "establishing an archive for future generations that preserves women photographers' work while serving as a driving force for innovative thinking and dialogue about their role in the photographic arts.""

The inaugural exhibition, tide lines of the frame, features 2025 artists-in-residence Kat Thompson and Nathyfa Michel. Both artists of Caribbean descent use personal archives and speculative histories to explore the politics of image-making in the Caribbean and its diaspora.
