Erika Iris Simmons - Incredible Art

Based in Georgia, creative Erika Iris Simmons is a self taught artist working with non traditional media, crafting looks from old and unappreciated materials. Driven by nostalgia of the archaic hope that not everything has outlived its use and can be saved from going to waste, Erika looks to both recycle and create enjoyment for all her viewers through her workings. Erika’s regeneration style is grabbing her attention from all over the globe right now, being included in The New York Times recently along with her other appearances in various national and international publications. She took some time to talk to us to reflect on her recent rise, and explain in depth more about what she does on the day to day.
