"Cardboard Comes to Life"

by

African American Artist Tanya Evans-Johnson

In celebration of Black History Month

Tanya is a local artist who uses items ordinary trash that is saved from entering landfills and oceans to create sustainable art.

Artist Statement:

"I am an artist who creates one-of-a-kind works from items the average person might consider garbage. I rescue recyclable materials that ordinarily end up in landfills or worse yet into our oceans. I love knowing that my art is stopping that from happening, even if just a little. Drawing inspiration from all aspects of art and life, I reimagine said materials with the addition of driftwood, experimenting with various textures to create original works of art. I began creating at the onset of the pandemic, going back to my love of art and creating as an artist. I want everyone, young or seasoned, to be inspired to create and share in that feeling, especially if their artistic muse has been dormant."
