Join artist Patty Rosenblatt and her co-presenter and video collaborator Kathryn Brodie for a special artist talk that explores the evolution of Hands to Earth and the environmental concerns that shape it.
Rosenblatt noted that green space is disappearing so rapidly that it might soon be possible for people to live their lives without ever touching the earth under their feet. Hands to Earth is her proposal to encourage others to engage with the Earth.
This program provides an opportunity to look back at Rosenblatt’s project through conversation, artwork, and film. Her series, First Violin, An Octave of Prints, which will be on display, offers a powerful visual example of her process and material exploration.
We invite you to join us for an engaging afternoon of art, reflection, and dialogue about touch, transformation, and our shared responsibility to the natural world.
