Elizabeth Colomba, artist
Join representational painter Elizabeth Colomba, who is of Caribbean and French heritage, in the galleries for a discussion about her artistic process. Colomba draws inspiration from Euro-American painters like Winslow Homer and John Singer Sargent. By centering Black diasporic subjects in historical settings, Colomba’s work challenges Western conventions of beauty and significance.
