For CascadePBS' Black Arts Legacies, we profiled print artist Jite Agbro as she created multi-layered pieces that are almost like collages of etching, sewing, and monotype, in her studio in Seattle's Fremont neighborhood. Again, I helped produce the still portion of the piece for photographer Meron Menghistab (seen in image 3) and did some behind-the-scenes and detail photography. This was the fifth and final season of the series profiling living and dead Black artists who have contributed to the vibrant Seattle arts scene. Articles, videos, and photos from this and the previous seasons can be seen on the BAL and CascadePBS websites. I'm very glad to have contributed a small part to the project. Kudos to the rest of the team, many of whom worked on all five seasons, for creating such an expansive look at the history and current trajectory of Seattle's Black artists.
