   Zeal Harris's Blurbs
About me:
I'm a recent MFA graduate of Otis College of Art & Design. Central themes that I'm exploring in my mixed media artworks are; collected personal experience narratives, self-ethnography, and contemporary folklore. These themes are informed by a strong interest in the African Diaspora, Feminist Thought, and a fundamental belief that the personal is both political and critical. For more info about me, visit my website (www.zealsart.com) and my blog (zealharris.blogspot.com).

Who I'd like to meet:
My Ancestors.

For some reason, I hate listing favourite books.
It feels kind of like being asked to list my favourite molecules of the air that I breathe!
