Please join us for our second Sculpture Dialogue of the season with visiting artist Eliza Myrie and Graduate Presenters Jasmine Yeh and Yumi Fukuda.

Myrie's work explores site and labor through generational inheritance, gender, and authorship. As a sculptor and printmaker, dimension, volume, and examination of how representation and subjectivity are lost/gained via physical and conceptual processes are central to her work. Cofounder of The Black Artists Retreat [B.A.R.]; Exhibitions include Arts Club Chicago; Gallery 400; Vox Populi; MCA & New Museum.
