Note: Lori Greene is a mosaic and textile artist whose work powerfully interlaces African and Choctaw heritage with community narratives. Working primarily in tile and glass, she creates luminous mosaic "textiles" that carry stories of strength, resilience, and cultural memory. Her practice is both artistic and spiritual, reflecting traditions while giving voice to untold histories of people of color. Greene’s commitment to community is central to her work. Through large-scale public projects and collaborations, she fosters spaces for healing, dialogue, and visibility. She is founder of Mosaic on a Stick, a community art studio in Saint Paul, and recipient of multiple honors, including two Bush Artist Fellowships and grants from the Minnesota State Arts Board.
