Lanecia A. Rouse

Picture
Lanecia Rouse Tinsley is a multidisciplinary visual artist based in Houston, TX and the owner and creator of LAR Art Studio. Her portfolio includes a range of abstract painting, photography, teaching, writing, and speaking. She also has extensive experience working collaboratively as a creative on various community engagement projects nationally and abroad.
 ​
Lanecia’s work is deeply informed by her studies in sociology, theology, and culture and is the result of contemplative and intuitive abstract mixed-media practices. In her studio practices, she explores the everyday quests humans undergo to make meaningful lives while grappling with fundamental questions about existence. She uses subtle manipulations of color, texture, materials, and form in her work, along with improvisation and play, to mirror the intricate layers and landscapes of both individual and communal memory and history.
 
Lanecia is the 2020-2021 Artist-in-Residence for the Center for Engaged Research and Collaborative Learning (CERCL) at Rice University and the Artist-in-Residence at Holy Family HTX (2017-Present). She is also the Director for Justice and the Arts with projectCURATE and the Co-founding and Creative Director of the ImagiNoir Equity Group, an international alliance and community development and equity group of black activists, artists, writers, scholars, philanthropists, and educators.
 ​
 Lanecia is a graduate of Duke University Divinity School (MDiv) and Wofford College (BA in Sociology).

Aside from shows/exhibitions, you can view her work every 3rd Saturday at the Hardy + Nance Streets Open Studios + follow my process on Instagram.
