P L A C E Symposium Panel Three

How do we build bridges?
Christine Wong Yap, visual artist and social practitioner, will lead a panel that will share projects illustrating how they have built cross-cultural bridges, transcended borders, practiced allyship/accompliceship, or designed immersive experiences to explore complex social relationships. Along the way, they’ll share lessons learned around collaboration, accountability, solidarity, interdependence, and sustainability. They will also discuss the potential for human-centered, process-oriented approaches to resist commodification and dehumanization while fostering belonging and common humanity. Panelists include Brett Cook, interdisciplinary artist and educator; Beatrice Glow, multidisciplinary artist; and Michelle Lin, ARTogether Artist Growth Program Director, textile artist, and author.
This event is a related program of P L A C E: Reckonings by Asian American Artists, an exhibition jointly organized by Montalvo Arts Center’s Lucas Artists Program and the ICA San Jose.
