MORGANTOWN — The WVU School of Art & Design will host Alisa Henriquez for a visiting artist lecture at 5 p.m. Sept. 27 in Bloch Hall at the Creative Arts Center.
Henriquez’s work is on display in the School’s Mesaros Galleries. In her most recent constructed assemblages, she combines material gathered from popular and glamour culture with digitized and magnified images from contemporary media and art history.
“Floaters,” the title of this series, references not only bits of optical debris but also the culturally conditioned conceptual spots that linger, informing our vision of ourselves as human, gendered and embodied entities.
The lecture is free and open to the public. Seating is on a first-come-first-served basis.
