Papermaking and Materials as Witnesses with Kelly Taylor Mitchell

12/09/23 • 42 min

Kelly Taylor Mitchell is an artist and educator living and working in Atlanta, GA. Her multidisciplinary practice centers oral history and ancestral memory, real and imagined, woven into the fabric of the Africana Diaspora. Kelly's work is deeply invested in labor intensive making, slowness, and home-spun passed down processes.

We discussed how she conceptualizes and creates her pieces, the significance of food and materials, and rooting her artistic practice in celebration and joy.
