Cleage, Pearl

Description

Video recording of Georgia author Pearl Cleage speaking about insecurity as being valuable to an artist. She sits before several tall African sculptures. She wears a black shirt and faces forward. She begins by stating that, after performing a certain kind of work for an extended period of time, an artist can become comfortable with the method of producing the art. Cleage contends that some insecurity can be a positive tool for an artist because it requires the artist to challenge himself or herself and push the boundaries of what they can do.
