Gerry Florida

Ima Freeman Teachers

Gerry Florida is an award-winning assemblage artist who refers to as a “Master of Imperfection”. Her creations deliver underlying messages of rebirth, recovery, and reclamation through an array of salvaged, recycled, and contemporary materials that she employs in her work. Her intrigue with the “beauty of imperfection” has led her to work on behalf of at-risk populations locally and nationally fostering the belief that integrating failures, accepting imperfections, and embracing differences is the path to living in harmony with the imperfections surrounding us and to living in sync with the real world and the one we can create.
