SUMMARY:Aram Han Sifuentes
DESCRIPTION:Aram Han Sifuentes’s art practice situates itself at the inte
 rsection of fiber\, social practice\, performance\, and pedagogy. At the c
 ore\, she creates socially engaged and materially rich projects in an ‘a
 rt world’ environment that are available and accessible for those who ar
 e disenfranchised\, particularly for dispossessed immigrants of color. She
  confronts social and racial injustices against the disenfranchised and ri
 ff off of official institutions and bureaucratic processes to reimagine ne
 w\, inclusive\, and humanized systems of civic engagement and belonging. S
 he does this by creating participatory and active environments where safet
 y\, play\, and skill-sharing are emphasized. And even though many of her p
 rojects are collaborative and communal in nature\, they incite and highlig
 ht individual’s experiences\, politics\, and voice. Much of her communal
  work revolves around sharing skills as a point of connection. Often\, sew
 ing techniques are shared to create multiethnic and intergenerational sewi
 ng circles\, which become a place for empowerment\, subversion and protest
 .\n\nThis lecture is free.
