Notes on Making "Light Cream Pods"

Join us on November 6, 6:30PM in Fine Arts B 105 for an artist talk by Fatimah Tuggar, Professor of AI in the Arts: Art & Global Equity, School of Art + Art History, College of the Arts, University of Florida. The lecture will be followed by a Q&A.

Interdisciplinary artist Fatimah Tuggar uses dialogue and discovery among disciplines and cultures as a central artmaking approach. In her work, technology is a medium and subject that serves as metaphors for power dynamics combining objects, images and sounds from diverse geographies and histories to comment on how technology impacts local and global realities. Her work has been exhibited in over twenty-five countries. She has received accolades, including a Guggenheim Creative Arts and W. A. Mellon Research Fellowships, and she is currently the Sick Distinguished Visiting Professor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Her ideas and artworks have been featured in publications, including Hirmer's monograph Fatimah Tuggar: Home's Horizon. Tuggar has contributed to the global discourse in contemporary art through talks, workshops and publications such as "72 Assignments: The Foundation Course in Art and Design Today" and the Visual Communications Journal issue on "The Ethics of Images."
