Art Lab Studio Session with Yétúndé Olagbaju
For Edmonia: Experimental Honorings is a presentation and workshop by Yétúndé Olagbaju that engages with the work and legacy of Edmonia "Wildfire" Lewis, utilizing research about, works by, and favorite poetry of the legendary sculptor. With materials in hand we will be using various redactive and additive methods to make risograph prints in homage to the artist. Once complete the risograph prints will become part of a temporal installation within the Art Lab space. An artist, cultural strategist, educator, and maker, Olagbaju utilizes video, sculpture, action, gesture, and performance as through lines for inquiries regarding Black labor, legacy, and processes of healing.
