Creative Lab is a series of interdisciplinary workshops designed and led by Guild Hall’s Visiting, Exhibiting, and Resident artists. Each Creative Lab invites participants to learn about an artist’s practice through an open lecture and a participatory workshop.
This evening’s Lab is led by mixed-media artist, Darlene Charneco. Charneco is a contemporary Latin-American artist whose mixed-media mapping series looks at people, networks, homes, and communities as part of a larger organism’s growth stage.
The Lab will focus on Charneco’s Guild Hall exhibition, Field Mappings – Weaves and Touchmaps, culminating in the creation of a collective “Learning Library,” connecting our memories, relationships, and intentions.
