We invite you to meet current ISSP artists in residence - Kat Bawden, Martyna Benedyka and Francesco Villa on Wednesday, 26th June at 19.00! They will talk about their art practices and ways of exploring different paths in photography and visual art, as well as show some of their work done in Riga during the last month. Welcome!
Kat Bawden is an artist, educator, and curator from Chicago. Her work explores and mediates relationships between the body, memory, and the self. Working with sensitivity to our physiological connection to light, her photography, video installations, and performances activate viewers’ bodies as a medium for somatic experience and emotional exchange. Kat teaches photography at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and runs an exhibition space and publishing house Murmuration.
Martyna Benedyka is a visual and sound artist, painter, photographer, and soprano singer. Working in a wide range of media, she focuses on various concepts of existence, memory and beauty, always looking behind what is seen. During her stay in Riga, she has been working on a new photographic project investigating monumentalism as a symbol that is increasingly present in our lives and often expressed through destruction or oblivion.
Francesco Villa is an Italian photographer and designer. His photography investigates the complexity of the contemporary landscape, making his projects open questions to the viewer for collective speculation on the present time. In 2019, he founded @altana.club - a collective space for photography and publishing. He lives and works between Milan and Rome.
The talk will be held in English. Free entrance!
