Join us on Wednesday, October 25 to celebrate the release of Carol Jazzar’s book “All (W-hole) of Me: Healing Through Art, The Art of Deconstructing and Recreating Oneself”. The author will be in conversation with Stephanie Seidel at Istituto Marangoni’s Library. Book signing and rooftop reception to follow.
CAROL JAZZAR is a self-taught interdisciplinary artist who lives and works in El Portal, Florida. Her work is centered on Nature, be it her own, or that of Mother Nature. To realize her artist goals, she sustains two practices: one in the studio, which revolves around collages, drawings and writing; the other outdoors, using photography and site-specific projects. Between 2007 and 2014, she ran a contemporary art gallery out of the garage on her property in Miami's El Portal neighborhood, where she showed artists such as Jen Stark, Farley Aguilar, David Rohn, Shoshanna Weinberger and Ronny Quevedo, among others. Her previous creative incarnation was as a clothing designer under the label Chains Addiction. Her work is part of the collections of the Miami-Dade Public Library, Miami International Airport, Related Group, Girl’s Club and other private collections.
