Join acclaimed artist and photographer Lyle Ashton Harris and scholar Nana Adusei-Poku as they delve into topics around self-care and representation explored in Harris's exhibition, Our first and last love. Harris and Adusei-Poku (who contributed an essay to the exhibition catalog) will discuss the artist's recent Shadow Works series, mixed-media assemblages of photographic prints embedded in Ghanaian printed textiles with cowry shells, pottery, handwritten notes, and other personal ephemera, underscoring Harris’s layered approach to his practice.
