Joanna Booth is a black, queer, artist, from Philadelphia, and recent graduate from Amherst College. At Amherst she majored in Studio Art and Black Studies, while concentrating in woodcut printmaking. Through her work she interrogates human interaction by combining portraiture with the abstract. Most recently she has moved back to Philadelphia and works as a Fob Holder at Second State Press where she continues to work with woodcuts, while also pursuing new printmaking techniques such as monotypes. Next she will be embarking on an apprenticeship at the Fabric Workshop and Museum where she will learn screen printing and how to construct repeat yardages on fabric.
