Join us on Saturday, April 24, at 11:00 AM, for Tang at Home Studio: Wild One! We will explore and learn about a work by Rina Banerjee with a title that tells a story: Mother gathered Three and no more dirty stones, tossed them to sky that could break what had hardened her ground and without frown or flirt of flower father like grease or butter slipped aside to free from forty and some more grown men who held her as housewife like plant life with Three or no more daughters. The work is on view in the exhibition Never Done: 100 Years of Women in Politics and Beyond. Banerjee incorporates objects, folklore, and imagery that reflect her own multinational and immigrant background. Inspired by Banerjee, we will imagine and create our own multimedia artwork that tells our own stories using drawing and collage materials.
Hosted by Sunny Ra, The Laurie M. Tisch Educator for K-12 and Community Programs, and her team of Skidmore student interns, these sessions are geared toward children ages 5 to 12 accompanied by a parent or guardian. This hour-long live session will focus on exploring and sharing our thoughts about the artwork, learning more about the artist and then making our own inspired work!
