"The Village of African American Doll Artists"
Artist Talk & Exhibition Opening: Suunday, February, 19, 2023
The exhibition takes a look at images through the lens of identity. The show is stellar. The curators and image makers are a grouping of renown African American doll and puppet artists who are unparalleled among their peers. They are living legacy. They are seasoned culture keepers. Their work includes dolls and puppets made of fabric, wood, papier-mâché, ceramic, air-dried clay, found items, and so, so much more. Several of the artists got their start as textile creatives, while others began working in other art forms before being drawn to the making of dolls and/or puppets.
