From Soil to Solidarity: Talking and Making with Jackie Amézquita

Join us for an engaging conversation with curator Frida Cano and featured Maker-in-Residence (MiR) Jackie Amézquita as they discuss the inspiration and process behind Between Root, Body, and Breath.  

Following the artist talk, attendees are invited to contribute a hand-cast earthen form made with a mixture of soil, masa, and ocean water, which Amézquita will use to complete her ongoing work at Craft Contemporary. This interactive experience will allow visitors to play an integral role in the creation of a ‘collective sculptural field- a shared body composed through many gestures, many materials and many geographies.’
