In the summer of 2021, rosy was invited to the campus of Berea College to serve as the inaugural artist in residence for the bell hooks center. The opportunity spurred the Storycatcher tour, a series of stops and interviews from Milwaukee to Mississippi, New Orleans, Birmingham, and Atlanta to engage artists, storytellers and gallerists in conversation on studio work, cultural study, and the historical importance of Black creativity.
