Syracuse Studio Visit

Last Saturday I had the pleasure of hosting a studio visit at LMCC for Syracuse students. Doug Dubois, Yasser Aggour and Laura Heyman brought their bright and talented juniors, seniors and grad students to tour the studios. Myself and fellow SU alum, Latoya Ruby Frazier talked about our work and process along with fellow residents, Michael Paul Britto, Kenya (Robinson), Deana Lawson, Paul Sepuya, Elia Alba and Becca Albee. Thanks to all the artists who opened up their studios and shared their work and insight.

Just received the current issue of Contact Sheet. This special issue, The Light Work Annual, includes work by artists invited to participate in Light Work’s Artist-in-Residence program. There is some impressive work from last year's round of artists, including Amy Stein, Xaviera Simmons and Deana Lawson.
