RAINJIVE IS A NEW PROJECT LAUNCHED DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC 2020
Visual Artist, Musician, Teacher, Gardener, Thinker, Activist, Mother, Wife, Sister, Daughter, Lover, Friend.
RAIN was born and raised in Chicago, and is an artist working across Poetics.
In her multimedia work, whether music or visual art, the intersection of social justice and spirituality is a thread that runs through all the disciplines of her work. As a teaching artist with students, from the classroom to the stage at the Art Institute of Chicago, she weaves a pedagogy with the same threads of spirituality and social justice.
Her paintings, prints and drawings going back over 35+ years represent an artistic practice rich in ideas, content, creativity and authenticity.
RAIN is currently a founding member of the art collective: MOTHER ART: REVISITED
Educated in the Arts at University of California, Berkeley. RAIN holds two degrees from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, a Master’s in Art Education, and a Master of Fine Arts. She has served as a teaching artist for the Chicago Public Schools for 22 years, and as adjunct faculty in Art Education at The School of the Art institute of Chicago.
"AMERICAN MAN" is on the album "Six Days at the Mouse House" iTunes, Spotify, Soundcloud, CD Baby recorded in Portland Oregon
at the studio of Modest Mouse.
The poem, "From The Studio" was written at the beginning of the pandemic we are now facing, when schools first closed and the new reality became homeschooling around the world. As a retired teacher I found the concept interesting and exciting to see how parental involvement may be helpful for some children's' learning needs, and how quickly teachers students and parents adapted to this new teaching paradigm.
