Tiarra Bell is an emerging furniture designer who holds a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts from Rhode Island School of Design.
The core of my work is an external reflection of my internal thoughts. I am interested in making furniture that does not only focus on aesthetics but rather creating a body of work that tells a story and communicates a message. I express the inexpressible by using my Biblical beliefs as a premise for my artistic expression. I'm able to translate those verbalized beliefs into something that is visual and tangible. I’m intrigued by how something that’s not visual, such as words, ideologies, or ethics can become something that you can plainly see, and touch.
