March Artist-In-Residence | Naomi Halpern

March 4 to March 30

Naomi's residency with SAA will focus on the questions: What personal balance is possible (and just) within imbalanced circumstances? What is the measure of responsibility a person can take for problems much larger than one person? & What actions transform communal health, care, and belonging?

Their primary mediums are fiber, ink, and light: crafting handmade papers from locally foraged plants, and forming the paper into cast-molds to make lanterns.

Their specific work with SAA will focus on hands– lit, cast, painted, and molded– as a metaphor of action, responsibility, care, and personhood. The hands will serve as the anchor in their investigations into the personal role within collective change.”
