Willie Cole, artist
Willie Cole is a celebrated African-American artist who constructs and assembles everyday found objects into works that transmit spiritual and often mythical power through allusion, metaphor, and symbolism. He is best known for a series of works involving the cultural symbolism of a simple household item, the flatiron. Cole’s work often examines the relationship between the forms of everyday objects and the identity of individuals who use them.
