Artist Talk: Blue McRight, This Changes Everything
8415 West 3rd Street Los Angeles, CA 90048
Friday, May 14 at 11:00 AM 12:00 PM
Ends May 14, 2021
Please join sculptor and installation artist Blue McRight for a virtual discussion about her visual, metaphoric language regarding water and the ocean that synthesizes years of witnessing the undersea wilderness as a scuba diver. In ways that are provocative, but more poetic than didactic, McRight’s work engages with major environmental issues including drought, sea level rise, and ocean plastic pollution. The discussion will address sustainable materials and methods in her artistic practice as well as those used in her studio building. This talk is presented in conjunction with the Craft in America Center exhibition, Making Waves: Ocean Ecology and Craft, on view through June 19, 2021. This talk will be streamed live via Zoom and Facebook. Register for the Zoom webinar here: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_15bv7rZuTmm3CWp43hcE6w
