Troy Duff

Troy Duff is a graffiti and fine artist based out of East Nashville, Tennessee. His passion lies in public art and a spontaneous creative process. Through graffiti, he pays tribute to the lost art of penmanship. It is how he became the creator of his own font. Troy wants graffiti to be a means of connecting with the community. He wants his art to be accessible and assembled like a puzzle. It is a challenge both for himself and the viewer, and when he creates it, it is the moment when he feels most alive. He’s been an artist at the last 5 ENDADAs and he made the prom backdrop for 2019. Please contact Troy if you have any questions or are interested in his work: troy@troyduffart.com

Jerry Phillips

Jerry Phillips is a local Nashville artist who works at Vanderbilt as a Gallery Coordinator and Studio Manager with the Arts Department. He is also the recipient of the 2019 College of Arts and Science Staff Excellence Award for the Humanities. Jerry graduated Murray State University and Bradley University before moving to Nashville in 2012. When asked about his art he says, “Drawing is exciting to me, because I see it as fundamental to all forms of art. It has an immediacy in materials and creation without the need to require a dedicated creative space or large equipment”. The foundation for much of is work is connecting his Pacific Islander heritage with his American upbringing.

Directly before ENDADA, Jerry had a solo show on MBA’s campus. He graciously offered to sell two of his works from this exhibition and donate all proceeds to next year’s ENDADA budget! If you are interested in purchasing either of these works below, please reach out to us at ENDADA!
