Exhibit Premier!

Korlah Portrait

korlah-ywca-27.jpg “Korlah” is made almost entirely from hand sculpted and hand painted bisque tile. The space around Korlah represents her poetry and rich inner life. It is filled with text and images reflecting her many interests. Mannequins, dancers, and musical notes represent her fashion designing and dancing, while text points not only to her poetry, but also her aspirations to make a positive difference in the world. Her shirt is reminiscent of a traditional African design, paying homage to the pride of her heritage. In the shirt I hand sculpted children’s hands, representing her charity work and desire to help inner city women and children in need. There is a dove of peace over her heart, more dancers, and also shoes, purses, perfume, clothing, and flowers representing her love of femininity and expressions of creativity.

This fantastic experience was not the end. The artwork will now begin to tour the world and be added to by other artists and survivors. 

The exhibition has already scheduled projects in New York, London, New Zealand, China, Mexico, and the Congo and other parts of Africa.. As it makes its way, I’ll be sure to keep you posted!
