Tracy Poindexter-Canton, writer and mixed-media artist

With her recent work “So Live, My Gems” now hanging in Pittsburgh’s August Wilson House, the writer and mixed-media artist ⁠Tracy Poindexter-Canton⁠ joins us this week to talk about that honor and her love of Wilson’s plays.

That naturally segues into discussions of Tracy’s private and public art, her lifelong fascination with Toni Morrison’s novels and the recurring symbols in her work.

The Lightning Round brings some unexpected tips on how to score audience tickets to your favorite TV shows and get your art into Questlove‘s hands.

Tracy currently has two pieces of artwork in the show “Colored Girls for Colored Girls: Evolution of Expression” at Arte Noir in Seattle. It runs until November 15.

Thanks to our Patreon sponsor-tier member ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mel Antuna Hewitt⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for her ongoing support of ALAYT.
