OUR HISTORY, OUR VOICES PROJECT
The Alaina René Williams Exhibit
About Her Exhibit…
I am a full time photographer in Knoxville, TN specializing in wedding and portrait/fashion. I knew my passion for photography at 11 years old and it grew even greater over the years. I began my business at only 18 years old and went full time at 21.
I believe in telling people’s stories, every story deserves to be told authentically and joyfully captured with a fresh and true touch of color.
This submission is about a production I hosted for women of color! It was to inspire them and others about how confident, radiant and strong we (as women) can be!
This production was to support, honor and recognize these women who have built a life of strength, confidence and success.
My goal is for other people to be moved by this as well and spread the light!
Let’s get the word out to support and honor the beautiful stories that have been told!

More Exhibits
The Sienna Prater Exhibit
I am inspired always by feelings and stories! I love to make art that has strong movement and color, and can convey depth and space in a new way. These acrylic on canvas paintings were all done in the space of about a month, and were all inspired by organic things in nature; stones, mountains, etc.
The Allison Hong Merrill Exhibit
I'm a Taiwanese immigrant writer based in Utah. My work mostly centers around my upbringing in Chinese culture, which sadly, conditions women and girls to submit to men's will.
The Leah Yaun Exhibit
This piece is titled “Fear of Him”. It is about a time in my life when I kept quite about a series of situations in fear of what would happen if I spoke up. It is too common women are belittled by boys because boys think they can do anything they want. I think it is important to note that women are so much stronger than what society views us as.
