‘Review: Tinsley’s “Double Distance” is emotional…’

Selected works from artist and AFTD volunteer Tori Tinsley’s Hugs series are currently being exhibited at the Ernest G. Welch School of Art and Design galleries, located at Georgia State University in Atlanta. Recently reviewed by ArtsATL.com, the painted sculptures and paintings explore the ways in which FTD has changed the mother-daughter relationship the artist has with her own mother, who lives with FTD. “Tinsley paints her mother and herself as cartoon characters attempting to hug through the struggles of dealing with her mother’s frontotemporal dementia, a degenerative brain disease. …Tinsley has created a sophisticated exhibition with a great deal of emotional sensitivity.” Read the entire review here.
