A Passion for Collecting: The Vision of Louis Allan Ford is a testament to Ford's cultural pride and the legacy he built through collecting. As a patron of the arts, Louis Ford was a familiar and dear figure on the Washington metropolitan art scene. His passion for African and African American art is reflected in the collection he amazed of near two hundred items. Ford acquired utilitarian and ceremonial objects of W Africa and historically significant works of art created past prominent and emerging contemporary artists. He was likewise a treasure hunter and was known for discovering rare works at estate sales and sale houses.
Ford was a graduate of Dunbar High School and Howard University. He was a lifetime fellow member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated. Ford served in the U.S. Air Force and afterward a cursory stint in the federal government found his niche in real estate, creating opportunities for homeownership for many African American families.

Bridget Z. Sullivan: For Our Sake
At the start of the pandemic we walked our neighborhood in NorthEast Baltimore for practice and sanity. The walks evoked my own memories from different times in my life. The COVID pandemic began to turn the local, very local, environment into my bailiwick. Our walks continued to reveal gems – natural and human made. Through the fall and winter we connected our daily walks. Really merely heavy pelting or high winds kept us from walking. I had been photographically foraging in my neighborhood. The varied and unique garages caught my center. The garages became symbolic of memories and of the people from my past. Many of the garages are original to the homes and withal have the materials used l-80 years ago to build them. Their age and varying states of disuse remind me of the garages from diverse times in my life. I began producing portraits of the garages, collecting them like mushrooms or insects.
My piece of work is a crossing of mediums, digital photography, cartoon and painting, that explores nature and environment with a combination of reverence and intimate expression. The images survey natural and man elements from many angles and distances. These depictions are enhanced and abstracted by painterly additions of colour and text. The rich images converge with gestural strokes and emotive language that allows the viewer to engage with the greater implications of the subjects. Sometimes these embellishments are fragile; sometimes they obliterate the subject into a space of wonder.
A garage is often a forgotten structure but steadfast and essential in their service to a home. Each of the garages tell a unique story. Through my work I spend fourth dimension reflecting on the visual and symbolic significance of the subjects as they chronicle to my personal investigation of life and death and the human feel every bit realized in health and illness.

Some of the works, calledChemigrams, were produced through a painting-like process made by exposing low-cal-sensitive paper to photo chemicals and unlike materials without a camera. All of the work considers the physicality of place, the subtleties of calorie-free and the means that history imprints on locations, which in plough shapes our present. This body of work has become my means to explore family and collective histories as well as a changing climate. Julie Buisson contributed living sculptures to stand for soil compaction every bit a result of deed. Within each object, plants grow at different soil depths to illustrate the means soil quality affects root systems, impacting erosion, carbon storage and nutrients.
