Street View: Artist Conversation with Reniel Del Rosario, Jasmine Ross, Jeffrey Sincich and moderated by Jenifer K. Wofford

27October
5:00PM - 6:00PM
Gleeson Library Thacher Gallery Event

This conversation features three artists from Market/Value discussing the many ways that their work reflects and is informed by communities. How do storefronts define a community, past and present? How do the people who work in these spaces shape their community? What is the role of artists in preserving and amplifying these voices and histories?

Reniel Del Rosario uses ceramics, quantity, and satire to discuss themes of commodification and value. His projects range from interactive mimicries of consumer establishments to reimaginings of artifacts. Jasmine Ross is a photographer and mixed-media artist whose work explores intergenerational memory, Black cultural preservation, and the communities sustained through everyday acts of care. Jeffrey Sincich is inspired by the built landscape around us and how we interact with it. His work uses quilting and found objects to represent feelings of comfort, tradition and history. Artist Jenifer K. Wofford is the program director for USF’s Fine Arts program.
