Tiffany Agee
[BFA] Painting
I create small, detailed, paintings that combine vibrant colors with gestural lines to represent members of my family in portraits. In this work, I’m considering the influence of the Vietnam War on my father’s life and health as I process grief and loss. I want the repetitive use of the color orange to invoke thoughts of Agent Orange and its effects on my father’s health, the effects of the Vietnam war on society as a whole and serve as a way to guide us through stages of his life.
