Artist Dialogue | Katarina Weslien

April 6 | 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm EDT

Sunday, April 6th | 2pm | In-person

Join us for this artist dialogue and book launch with i forgot to remember artist Katarina Weslien in conversation with Executive Director, Robert Wolterstorff.

The conversation between Weslien and Wolterstorff will discuss the coming together of the exhibition, i forgot to remember, as well as the accompanying catalog (designed by Rita Davis) as a continuation of the exhibition with contributing writers: CMCA Executive Director, Robert Wolterstorff; independent curator, Susan Weaver; essay by Rebecca Duclos and responses by M. Rachel Arauz, Brian Dunn, Hilary Irons, Julie Poitras Santos.

Drawing on a four decade-long multi-disciplinary practice, artist Katarina Weslien has created a large-scale and expansive exhibition for the Main Gallery at CMCA. i forgot to remember is immersive and experiential reflecting the artist’s “deep, on-going interest in the tactile and metaphoric power of cloth; how mute objects speak; and how objects elicit memories, emotions, and embodied imaginations in the face of impermanence, disorder, and displacement.”
