GEOFFRY WHITE, PhD
I am the oldest of four sons of a physician father and an artist mother. I followed in both their footsteps, becoming a health care provider and an artist I am proud to say. My father taught me the value of applying science to help reduce human suffering and my mother taught me to see the beauty in the world. My three younger brothers became artists in their own right and the four of us became close in sharing a love of art. It is to them that I dedicate my entry in the 2023 Mirrors of the Mind exhibition.

I collaborated with a seamstress to create these pieces that complement each other. The Freud doll is to be held by clients when I'm not available. The little bear was made from my father’s pajamas he was wearing when he died after a long struggle with Alzheimer’s. Now my dad can get the love he needed forever..
