Felt, Wrapped, Entangled: A Conversation with Artists Rabbia Sukkarieh and Adrian Pepe

Looming sculptures of spun wool coils. Braided shearlings dyed with ochre. Fabric wrapping bullet-ridden trees and slaughterhouse pipes. What sensations, memories, and narratives do wool and fiber evoke? How do textiles enact and restore bonds between living beings and their environments? Join artists Rabbia Sukkarieh and Adrian Pepe as they speak about their work with woolen matter and textile-rich performances. Moderated by Jessica Gerschultz, Senior Humanities Research Fellow.
