About this listen
Lavett Ballard is an artist, an educator, a historian, author, culture keeper. Her work is immediately recognizable in that she uses slices of aged wood and slices of birch in her work, specifically wooden fences. She began this practice for her thesis and continues to evolve it. Influenced by Denzel Washington’s performance in the movie Fences she says, “Fences are a metaphor for those things that both keep us in and
things that keep us out.” Her work The Bus Riders – Demanding Dignity depicting Rosa Parks was on the cover of Time Magazine in 2020. Today we’ll learn more about her practice, influences and motivations.
