FreChelle Tesla lives and works in El Paso, Texas. She was born in Bennettsville, South Carolina and has studied at The American College of Applied Art, Los Angeles CA, Barstow Community College, Barstow CA and the University of Maryland. Since moving to El Paso in 2011 Tesla has been actively teaching art and exhibiting her work in numerous group and solo exhibitions. Through her work Tesla explores issues of race, gender, slavery and previous societies by juxtaposing found objects, organic materials with historic or self-authored texts. Continuously challenging the viewer to question stereotypes and assumptions Tesla's work is at once both recognizable and provocative.
