Jazzy Tiles, Barbara Triscari

30 x 39
The motifs of Jazzy Tiles are inspired by the exterior architectural tiles of The Madame Walker Legacy Center in Indianapolis and the jazz music that has been a large part of its history. The Madame Walker Legacy Center began as a factory for entrepreneur, Madame C. J. Walker, the nation's first self-made African-American millionaire. The factory became a theater and has been an important cultural center for decades, still giving stage to jazz musicians today. The Center continues to celebrate and support African- American culture and the arts, as well as entrepreneurs.
