Here & Now, Boukra Press, Six Questions for Melissa Smedley, Salinas River, Bees, Art Hives, Dept. of Homeland Inspiration, Todd Park Mohr, Natalia La Fourcade.
I can hear Melissa’s literal voice in these words. Also, I value her art explorations being so connected to her family history and journey. You asked me these same questions and I lack the sense of familial history/connection she has- so it’s interesting for me to compare how these circumstances form us as artists and individuals. I think your questions could be used as an activity for any artist to perform, in tandem with reading those you post!
