ARTISTS TO KNOW: Volume 1 gathers four emerging artists: Derriann Pharr, Nia Winslow, Kiki Joyce, and Aleah Leary whose works weave together themes of transformation, identity, and cultural memory. Presented virtually by SHEER, this collection invites viewers to move through a space where collage, painting, and sculpture meet to create new visions of self and community.

Derriann Pharr creates gestural, shape-shifting figures in mixed media that examine self-compassion and representation.

Nia Imani Winslow uses layered collage to celebrate the vibrancy and complexity of Black life and culture.

Kiki Joyce builds colorful, dreamlike worlds through painting and assemblage that reimagine everyday objects and identity.

Aleah Leary works across painting, textiles, and ceramics to explore memory, family, and selfhood.
