Cullins describes herself as the “Grandma Moses of Fiber Art” and her works reflect a “uniquely bi-racial, African American world view.” Using African and other ethnic fabrics, mixed with western textiles (as well as her own hand-dyed fabrics), she shows the inter-relationship of the two - one referential to the other. Thus, her work reveals that “the historic place of Africans brought to America is deeply interwoven in the larger culture that too often obscures or suppresses that presence.”
