Taking place on December 1, 2023, at the Pasadena City College - C 333 in Pasadena, California, this event brings together two distinguished individuals from the art world.

Ashwini Bhat, a talented artist who recently relocated to Sonoma Mountain, California, after spending over three decades in Southern India, will share her unique creative journey. Drawing from her background in literature and classical Indian dance, Bhat employs various mediums such as sculptures, installations, video, and text to explore the intersection between the human body and the natural world. Influenced by her rural agrarian upbringing, Bhat's work also integrates syncretic shrines, rituals, and non-Western metaphysical concepts, fostering empathy for the non-human. By mapping consciousness and highlighting the transformative power of place, Bhat's work contributes to a spiritual and psychological archive.

Jenni Sorkin, a respected professor of History of Art & Architecture at the University of California, Santa Barbara, will join Bhat in conversation. Sorkin's expertise lies in examining the connections between gender, material culture, and contemporary art, focusing on women artists and underrepresented media. Through her acclaimed books and numerous essays, Sorkin sheds light on these often-overlooked aspects of the art world.

This free event, followed by a reception with a light lunch, offers a unique opportunity to engage with these two remarkable individuals as they delve into the fascinating world of clay and its profound connections to body and spirit.
