Ellis Angel’s Mixed-Media Weavings: Art as Activism

Featured Works: A Gallery of Resistance

Ellis Angel is a mixed-media artist whose woven works confront pressing social and political issues. Utilizing found and recycled materials such as banned books, protest posters, and shredded documents, Angel's art challenges injustice and amplifies silenced voices. By intertwining traditional weaving techniques with contemporary themes, like gun violence, women's rights, and immigration, Ellis creates pieces that not only tell a story but also serve as a call to action.
