Carletta Carrington Wilson: this light called darkness, for Jacob Lawrence

Carletta Carrington Wilson is a literary, mixed-media, and installation artist. She explores the "text" of textiles. Her work appears in This Light Called Darkness, Take a Stand: Art Against Hate, The African American Review, Cimarron Review, Obsidian III, and Cascadian Zen: Bioregional Writings on Cascade Here and Now. Her works have been exhibited at Wa Na Wari, CoCA, Bainbridge Island Museum of Art and the Northwest African American Museum.

As artist-in-residence at the Dr. James and Janie Washington Studio and Cultural Center in the Central District, Wilson created a series of site-specific installations whose process is documented in Poem of Stone & Bone. Journal entries chart her journey and visceral responses to objects found on the grounds, in the house and studio of the artist. Poem of Stone and Bone engages objects, land and literature to create a nuanced perspective on the life and work of James W. Washington Jr.
