Two artists from Untitled, 2020: Art from Maine in a ________ Time come together in conversation in each installment of “Intersections,” our free digital event series that runs throughout the exhibition. Through informal, open-ended conversation, these two artists will make new discoveries together, ask questions, and find common ground in their practices. In this installment, Greta Bank and Eleanor Kipping host the conversation, and we encourage you to sit in.
Greta Bank’s sculpture, performances, and installations often use both topical and historical content to provoke social inquiry. Bank describes her work as visual essays, positioning her audience to reflect on diverse matters such as environmental corruption, mass consumption, and social constructs.
Eleanor Kipping explores the experience of the Black diasporic female body in the United States through the examination and deconstruction of historical and contemporary narratives.
