Looking to Weston's current Recess project, "Through: The Fold, The Shatter" and Brown's recent writing, "Touch at your own peril", the discussion will explore the topics of forging intimacy through abstraction, the aesthetics of blackening, and deep reading sculpture.
* Event attendees are encouraged to read the essay prior to tonight's discussion. Essay link in bio.
