Nastassja Ebony Swift creates very personal art, using a variety of mediums. Her wool sculptures are particularly resonant and her topics cover subjects of race, gender, representation and other topics that challenge people who see it. Old Dominion students, led by Mikquan Johnson along with Darian Harris, Alicia Sokolovsky and Ivee Harrison worked to put this story together.
