​ Faith Kohler (aka TruGlue Artist) is a self-taught artist whose medium varies to fit each of the stories her work tells. Originally from New York, Faith is a former federal agent who graduated from Wellesley College and Marquette University Law School. Her art career began as she worked in law enforcement, giving a voice to seven chronically homeless men over a period of six years in the documentary film 30 Seconds Away: Breaking the Cycle, which premiered in the Milwaukee Film Festival in 2015. Following the release of her documentary, she continued her artistic journey with visual storytelling, using mixed-media, photography and digital collage to connect audiences with critical social issues and colorful, vivid perspective. Faith uses her work to spark ideas, evoke emotions and start conversations that improve moments, lives and communities. As someone who struggles with chronic disease, Faith balances stories of darkness with stories of hope and beauty for the world she wishes to see.
