Alison Saar's mixed-media sculptures explore African American and feminine identity and diverse spiritual traditions.  She studied art and art history at Scripps College in Claremont, where she became interested in African, Latin American and Caribbean art and religion.  She received an MFA from Otis, and has been awarded both a Guggenheim Fellowship and two NEA fellowships.  Her work has been exhibited at the Hirshhorn Museum; The Whitney Museum; Studio Museum in Harlem; Santa Monica Museum of Art; and UCLA Fowler Museum.
