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).

Hi Zeal! Thanks for updating me about your research. I've got a ton of stuff about the area and the South in general, but nothing yet about Bayshore. Let me know when you're on the East Coast.
