For its latest community program, Ohio Wesleyan University’s Richard M. Ross Art Museum is going “In the Studio” with a series of Facebook Live events featuring artists discussing their art and process. The events will be hosted on the museum’s Facebook page at www.facebook.com/RossArtMuseum.
On Dec. 13, artist Johnny Coleman will be the virtual "In the Studio" guest.
An interdisciplinary artist and educator, Coleman is a professor of Studio Art and Africana Studies at Oberlin College. He describes his sculptural work and sound installations as “intentional gestures in homage and prayer.”
Coleman states, “My work is centered upon themes of the crossroads: a focal point/threshold of challenge and transformation. For the last 30 years, I have been composing spaces activated as prayers: requests for guidance, conscious statements of intent, and thanksgiving.”
He earned his Master of Fine Arts Degree from the University of California at San Diego. Learn more at www.peasandricepress.com.
