About this Event
Every project begins with a gentle invitation: for an artist to develop a new body of work, and for each one of us to consider how we participate in shaping collective memory.
For Yanira Collado, whose practice is deeply rooted in restoration, healing, and reconciliation, the invitation with Commissioner was a prompt to examine how seemingly disconnected elements come together, and to reimagine a proverbial table that makes everyone feel at home.
Working across installation, audio, sculpture, photography, and collage, Collado explores the histories held in materials and architecture. She asks: what do we inherit, what do we carry, and what can we make together?
Join us on Thursday, December 17 at 6 PM at the Bass Museum of Art. Members are welcome to a special unveiling of Collado’s commission, followed by Rhythm to Trace: From Body to Visual Form—an experiential workshop led by the artist and open to our many interconnected communities.
Thursday, December 17
6–7:30 PM | Member Reveal
7:30–9 PM | Public Workshop
In Collado’s workshop, movement and sound will become marks on a page. With her guidance, feel how physical expression translates into continuous line drawings, then create your very own mixed-media and abstract artworks.
