A Talk by Ann Carlson
Award-winning interdisciplinary artist Ann Carlson shares an intimate artist talk shaped by storytelling, embodied research, and live reflection. Drawing from four decades of work across dance, performance, visual art, and socially engaged practice, Carlson approaches practice as ceremony, risk as a material condition for making, and unlearning as both an artistic and ethical necessity.
Moving between images, anecdotes, and thinking in real time, the talk considers how performance operates as a tool for attention— interrupting habit, testing form, and opening space for uncertainty and not-knowing.
Less a lecture than a shared studio encounter, this event invites artists, makers and thinkers across disciplines to reflect on how we practice, what we risk, and what we might need to let go of to begin again (and again.)
Open to all.
