Smith's works critique power in US systems like prisons and education, winning the Suzanne Deal Booth and Flag Art Foundation Prize with $200,000 and a solo exhibition at both venues.
Suzanne Deal Booth praises Smith's ability to ask challenging questions and celebrates supporting artists on the cusp of significant career points with platforms and resources.
Smith's use of various media exposes subtle ways US power systems are intertwined in visual and material culture, such as her Coloring Books series and sculptures made from prison furniture.
