Artists Maren Hassinger, Adia Millett, and Shinique Smith embrace multifaceted approaches to making. Informed by the traditions of craft, dance, assemblage, public art, and more, they utilize innovative materials and processes to reflect on personal identify, shared experience, and the interconnectivity among living things. This panel discussion will focus on how these artists harness the resonance of materials, the power of abstraction, and the spirit of experimentation to explore relationships between the natural and industrial worlds and between private narratives and collective histories.
