    Artist Talk with Teju Cole

    In both writing and photography, Teju Cole combines his eye for beauty with his capacity to perceive human and civic truth. A prodigious novelist, critic, and photographer, Cole was born in the US and raised in Nigeria — a biographical fact that informs much of his work. Hailed by Salman Rushdie as “among the most gifted writers of his generation,” Teju reminds us “to embrace the complexity of others, and to see in the darkness not only despair but also understanding and even refuge” (The Guardian).

Yvette performs with vocally clean and pure interpretations while emphasizing intonation and storytelling.
