Carolyn Harper
My work has a strong social justice component to it, as I create images of people or groups who have been marginalized, discriminated against, or abused. The works provide faces to the historically faceless, nameless and powerless. They consist of large scale, hand-sewn quilts and hand-embroidered batik portraits. Using graphic representation of society’s forgotten members, my portraits shout, “See ME! Look At Me!”
Carolyn will be joined by her daughter Allyson Cohen, a violinist and Founder of Concert Music Outreach Collective, a non-profit organization whose mission is to combat the disparities in classical music access by providing concerts to underserved communities like prisons, shelters and hospitals.
