ABOUT
Shamira Wilson is an interdisciplinary visual artist.
Shamira creates minimal abstract art that explores the repeat patterns of textiles. Her work alludes to the storytelling qualities found in narrative textiles and objects across the African Diaspora. Fusing similarities in the language of graphic design, textiles, furniture, and architecture, her compositions express impressions left by the contemporary domestic, built, and natural landscape.
