  6. Featured Art Work All in the Familyby David Wilson Medium: Digital CollageSize: 18 x 24 in.

  7. Featured Artist David Wilson "I wish to produce art that focuses on the experiences of my culture and ancestral heritage. There’s a pure beauty within the African American experience that is manifested outwardly in our characteristic hues, features and mannerisms. My art serves an entry point into a greater understanding of self and my rich heritage. Not only am I awakened to the artistic advancements that my Egyptian ancestors provided; I am also filled with pride when my artistic journeys broaden my knowledge of African/African American advancements to the world. It is during the process of creation that I realize my ability to stop time and shape reality into my own personal and universal metaphors. While these metaphors manifest in black, I create for interpretation by all. My goal is to inspire introspection, education and communication."
