Meet Serrah Russell

A Poor Man's Marc Chagall by Serrah Russell

Serrah is an artist, photographer, curator, and woman of great style.

Her work attends to the place where past-meets-present and does so with reverence and care. Her curiosity around this particular collision is whimsical, raw, quiet, and disarming. Serrah is an artist keenly aware of time, and she uses this awareness to captivate and challenge the imagination. Her photographs and collages make me want to play old jazz records and linger over hand-written notes, but not because her work is sentimental– it isn't.

Her work is absorbing because it acknowledges the pain and the beauty that, together, forge the present from the past.
