Willie Little
[adrotate banner=”40″]
Multimedia, installation artist and storyteller, Willie Little was born in rural North Carolina and currently resides in Portland Oregon. Many of his works are rooted in the Southern traditions of North Carolina. Through his visual narratives, he documents a fading part of a rural lifestyle.
Willie received his B.A. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He has had solo exhibitions at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC, The Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University, and the Pounder Kone’ Artspace in Los Angeles. Notable group exhibitions have been at the Corcoran in Washington DC, the California Folk Art Museum in Los Angeles and the SF MOMA Artist’s Gallery.
Little’s work is a cultural testament to Southern rural traditions, family dynamics and it identifies with universal experiences that cross racial and socio-economic lines.
