GO ART Exhibit: Ty's Poles by Ty Dickey

Ty Dickey resides in Detroit, Michigan. His works have been well received, in exhibitions at the Carr Cultural Center and the Baltimore Gallery in Detroit, Michigan.

Ty creates his works from a strong African-centered viewpoint, drawing inspiration from his surroundings. His latest works are decorative fabric spools, a mixed media form that incorporates recycled cardboard paper and acrylic paint.

Each piece is elegant and unique; the same design is never painted twice.

Several of the pieces incorporate Ghanaian adinkra symbols. Other pieces are freeform, with geometric shapes and doodles that are created in the moment.
