Tracey L. Moore | Associate Professor in Digital Media Arts | the Interim Director for the Arts Program at Prairie View A&M University
Tracey L. Moore earned her BA in Advertising Art at Prairie View A&M University and an MFA in Studio Art with a concentration in Graphic Communications from the University of Houston. She teaches upper-division courses in the Digital Media Arts program. She has also developed a special laboratory, DesignView Media Center, which is a student-run studio that offers graphic design services to PVAMU departments, student organizations, faculty, and staff and provides Digital Media Arts majors with real-world design experience.
When she is not in the classroom, Ms. Moore freelances. Her most notable work has been the redesigning of the logos for the Texas Institute for the Preservation of History and Culture (TIPHC or The Culture Center), The Charles Gilpin Players, and the PVAMU iREAD program. She is responsible for creating the marketing materials for the annual PVAMU African American History Month events. In addition to design, Ms. Moore creates artwork using photography, stitched fabric, and found objects. Her piece, An Equal Liberty, was featured in the Perceptions of Whiteness Exhibit at the Beach Institute and highlighted in an article for the Savannah Morning News.
Being an amateur historian and genealogist, Moore often uses historical events, world or personal, as an underlying theme in her work. She has exhibited her work in numerous galleries and cultural centers throughout the United States. She is a mother of one, Sophia, who is a cellist and a digital artist.
