ISABELLA (IZZY) CHURCH

Izzy has a passion for storytelling. Izzy is the author-illustrator of Dr. Pookie and The Case of His Missing Thought and the novel, Angry Movie Guy. Originally from California, Izzy lives in Manhattan, where she works as an artist, artivist, actress, producer, and director.

 

Izzy has curated and displayed her artwork at numerous contemporary galleries including, World Trade Center, Richard Taittinger Gallery, Afro-Punk, Howl Happening, NYU-Kimmel Gallery, No More Black Targets (revolving show), North Side Festival, and numerous other art galleries & events.

 

About this book, Izzy hopes to provide an alternative way for children and parents alike to view the elaborate high-quality graffiti letters with their vivid colors as a secretive art form, which speaks of economics and upheaval in marginalized societies. The City streets invite you to decrypt their often progressive and amusing messages that range from political angst, animal & environmental activism to political slogans that inspire hope and action.

 

Izzy is delighted to showcase the artwork of the numerous artist selected to participate in this book.
