Maryam Yousif will debut new site-specific installations. These ceramic and mixed-media relief sculptures incorporate snippets of personal memory, Mesopotamian and Assyrian mythology, and Iraqi art and architecture. Connecting with the rich tradition of Bay Area ceramics, Yousif interprets ancient objects and symbols alongside contemporary pop culture.
The Poetics of Dimensions, a groundbreaking group exhibition curated by Larry Ossei-Mensah, illuminates the works of visual artists who have honed artistic practices utilizing quotidian materials such as durags, shoelaces, felt, leather, single-use plastic, and more. These artists craft pieces that transcend the mundane to evoke contemplation of the sublime.
