Jeanne Medina Le / Friday, October 21, 2022 @ 6:30

Join us on Friday, October 21st at 6:30 for a lecture by Jeanne Medina Le. Jeanne is an LA-based artist who uses textile, the body, and installation to perform artistic research. She considers her production a continuous process which attempts to learn and decolonize the fixed and fluid spaces of her filipina-american identity.

Jeanne is Assistant Professor in 3D Media / Fiber Program Head at California State University Long Beach.

This lecture is a collaboration with Portland Textile Month
