QTVC Live! x moCa Cleveland Season 2 Episode 6 features Cleveland artist, Erykah Townsend. Erykah is a conceptual artist who operates under the studio name of Milk Crate Studio. Pulling from pop-cultural influences, mostly cartoons and kids movies from the 1990’s, Erykah digs deeper into the social implications of these icons while leaning into their humor and uncanny.
