Cover Art: Breaking the Celestial Code #1
Rodney Veal, an independent choreographer and multi-disciplinary artist, serves as adjunct faculty and career community Coordinator at Sinclair Community College. He is a graduate of Eastern Michigan University with a B.S. in Political Science and Visual Arts. He also received his M.F.A. in Choreography from The Ohio State University. Rodney can currently be seen as the Host of the Emmy award-winning television series The Art Show on Think TV/CET Connect.
Breaking the Celestial Code #1 is one of a series of twelve collage panels that reflect the artist's interest in creating artwork that explores the idea of reclaiming everyday paper objects. His work is asking the viewer to embrace new perspectives on the visual beauty that surrounds us.
