Crosstown Arts Galleries
1350 Concourse Ave., Suite 280
Memphis, TN 38104 United States

Hear from Crosstown Arts resident artists Eric Clausen, Yancy Villa-Calvo, and Robby Grant as they discuss their work.


About the artists:
Eric Clausen
(b. 1984) is an artist currently living and working in Memphis. As part of his research, he travels cross country by bicycle. During these ventures, Clausen documents observations through drawings and audio recordings. Using these, he creates psychogeographic meditations on our changing Americana. Outside of that work, he is an Instructional Designer for Columbia University, a faculty member in the Rosa Deal School of the Arts at Christian Brothers University, and an independent illustrator, animator, audio producer, & gameshow host.

Yancy Villa-Calvo holds a B.A., B.F.A., and M.B.A., and she was born in Mexico City. Through multimedia work, she seeks to create awareness, provoke a thought and engage in a conversation on issues of social justice and equality. The latest collaborative projects, GEMS Memphis 3.0 and Barrier Free Art Installation, are examples of her work that showed the art engagement with underserved individuals and communities.
