Join the Tyler School of Art and Architecture for a virtual lecture from Afro-Venezuelan multidisciplinary artist Daphne Arthur. By blending smoke, paint, clay, and sculpture mediums, Arthur examines the complex relationship between the physical and the ephemeral in regard to language, symbolism, and memory. In highlighting realist and surrealist themes, she weaves the concepts of change and impermanence through her work with the use of found objects and meticulously curated pieces.
Born in Venezuela and currently based in New York, Arthur also teaches at York College, Brooklyn College, and Tufts SMFA University.
The Critical Dialogue Series is hosted by Tyler School of Art and Architecture at Temple University and is partially supported through Temple University's General Activity Fund.
