I am a visual artist working in collage, assemblage sculpture and altered books. My practice explores identity, memory and the history of the African diaspora. Vintage and contemporary images collide to convey how the past informs the present.

Artfest opening ceremonies, part 2

"Artfest"
A few quick hits to whet your Artfest appetite (as if you weren't already dying for more): Trades!
 Remember my trade -- the scratch-off tickets to win a mini-collage? Announcing the winner...
 Tristan Tartaglia! (And poor Carrie Clayden behind her, crushed but bearing up bravely.) The best part: Tristan jumped up and yelled, I WON!!! in the middle of a packed dining room.
Not a class proposal -- the other kind: organizer Teesha Moore will soon have a son-in-law! Teesha's daughter Trista got engaged in front of all 550 Artfesters!
Coming up next: First day of classes with Clarissa Callesen. Stay tuned!
