Textile Landscapes: resisting erasure through reconstruction
Lecture by Nereida Dusten

What does it mean to draw a line if home is a verb? artist Nereida Dusten speaks to the refusal to disappear

Nereida Dusten (Hermosillo, Sonora, b. 1992) is a visual artist with a degree in Fine Arts from the Autonomous University of Baja California. She develops her work in the technique of embroidery and two-dimensional and three-dimensional collage. Dusten will discuss her Spotlight exhibition What does it mean to draw a line if home is a verb? which speaks to this refusal to disappear, rooms that collapse in one location only to rebuild in another, and resisting erasure through reconstruction. Her work is an intimate exploration using recycled materials, textiles, found photos, and collage to question how we construct and inhabit physical and emotional spaces.
