3. India Cruse-Griffin

What began as child's play with torn up magazines is now a style of award-winning art for Richmond native India Cruse-Griffin.

Through her work, Griffin celebrates women and her ancestry. Her mixed media collage images, alive with bold colors, shapes and patterns, tell stories of love, pride, culture and the spirit of community. The 40" x 60" piece is one of the largest commissioned pieces in the Reid art program. Other works by Griffin may be seen in the Administrative Suite on the first floor

The next two paintings, both by Alan Patrick, are installed on the wall to the southeast of the elevators.
