ARCH Project Lecture & Lunch with the Artist, Nekisha Durrett
Join artist Nekisha Durrett as she talks about the inspiration for her artwork, the historical research that informed it, and the creative process of fabricating it for Bryn Mawr’s campus.
Bryn Mawr College’s ARCH Project (Art Remediating Campus Histories), in partnership with Monument Lab, is a multi-year collaboration with students, staff, faculty, and alums to design a thoughtful process for commissioning a lasting campus public artwork that responds to the legacy of exclusionary practices at the College. Nekisha Durrett's campus monument, titled "Don't Forget to Remember (Me)", will be placed in the Cloisters at the center of Old Library and contribute to a broader effort of historical reckoning.
Bryn Mawr College welcomes the full participation of all individuals in all aspects of campus life. Should you wish to request a disability-related accommodation for this event, please contact the event sponsor/coordinator. Requests should be made as early as possible.
