Today I’m talking with Rachel Gloria Adams. We cover a lot in this episode, from Rachel’s upbringing and the role her mother played in helping her discover her calling in art, to her experience as a Black mother and artist. Her unique perspective is visualized in bold graphic prints and natural forms. She also heads TACHEE, a textile design company featuring her bright prints on small batch clothing and home goods. Together with her husband Ryan, the pair founded the Piece Together Project, a rotating collection of murals in Maine’s East Bayside neighborhood, in Portland. This project celebrate the people that built and thrived in this special neighborhood.Rachel's art is featured on the cover of our brand new publication BRIGHT, and you can find her in the pages of our latest issue of Making No. 12 / DUSK - both available for purchase and 2022 subscriptions at makingzine.com.
