PRESS RELEASE: Alyssa Hinton, Meredith College’s Mercer-Kesler lecturer and exhibiting artist, creates a glimpse into the life of southeastern Native Americans through the utilization of traditional folklore and history. Pertaining to the displacement of her Tuscarora (Eastern North Carolina) and Osage (Missouri/Kansas) ancestors, Hinton uniquely illustrates southeastern Native American imagery while all maintaining the key ideas of tradition, folklore and history. Not only does her art represent the culture of her ancestors, Alyssa Hinton uses vibrant colors to awaken the soul as well as allow viewers to see the artist’s “inner restoration”.
