works in various media such as installation art, photography,
filmmaking and music. One of her well known projects include the
electropop and video project group, Tracy + the Plastics. Wynne works

Art and Art History at Seattle University.She attended Douglass
College, and Rutgers University for her undergraduate studies and
later received an M.F.A, from the Milton Avery Graduate School for the
Arts, Bard College in 2004.Greenwood is perhaps best known for her
work under the name Tracy + the Plastics. While working as the
Plastics, she played the role of three characters: Tracy and her
back-up singers Nikki Romanos and Cola. In live performances, Nikki
and Cola (aka "the Plastics") existed in pre-recorded video which
played behind "Tracy" (Greenwood, in person) as she gave live vocals.
The project ended in June 2006. In 2012, Greenwood released a
full-length music album titled A Fire to Keep You Warm.Since 2006,
Greenwood has shifted her practice to focus mostly on visual art.
While Tracy + The Plastics performed extensively in gallery and museum
settings, in late 2004 Greenwood had an exhibit of her own work Maps
to Radical Imagining at the Tollbooth Gallery in Tacoma, Washington.
