Hi, name is Crystal Marshall. I’m a visual artist that focuses primarily in painting however I’ve done photography, printmaking, sculpture and ceramics in my studies. I love painting and I like to share my experiences with other people. I feel that life is a journey and our experiences are worth documenting and sharing so we can learn from and relate to one another. I’m originally from Kingston Jamaica but I’m based in Atlanta GA, and have been so for the past 10 yrs. So current themes I primarily address is the loss of heritage/roots, cultural disparities, solitude and vulnerability and reconciliation with the past. These themes are always reoccurring in my work. I’m super excited to be apart of this international art community since this is my very first virtual residency. I look forward to meeting you all.
