Event Details
The Florida State University Department of Art is proud to promote Elysia Mann, former press manager at FSU’s Small Craft Advisory Press, for recognition in Year Yellow (The Year of the Scallop Shell), which indexes 2018 in alphabetic tangles of memoir, observation, and obsession.
Elysia combines drawing, weaving, and poetry into fragmented historical documents. She uses the metaphor of stereoscopic vision to imagine the split-second in which what we witness becomes encoded into what we know. She is blind in one eye. Confusing the singular and plural suggests an alternative way of being in which self and others share definitions. The individual expands and opposites contract. People are uncertain of their boundaries.
