ICA Speaks: Liz Deschenes
ICA Miami welcomes artist Liz Deschenes, whose work Shift/Rise #36 (2016) is featured in the museum’s permanent collection, for a virtual edition of ICA Speaks. This program is free to the public with RSVP, and requires a registered Zoom account to participate.
Over the last 20 years, Liz Deschenes has created a body of photographic work that explores light, material, and space. Rather than producing images, she explores the relationship between the material processes through which images are produced, the ways in which seeing is habituated, the history of the medium, and exhibition structures of presentation as a critical counterpoint to a world awash in media. This presentation will explore concepts central to the artist’s practice, as well as recent work.
