Los Angeles-based artist EJ Hill will present his recent works and projects, and share the impetuses for his creative practice. He will discuss his journey from a primarily performance-based practice to an installation and object-based output. Hill will also provide insight into his desires to move beyond representations of pain, violence, and struggle and closer to more rounded, complex presentations of Our experience–representations which do not deny the aforementioned, but ones that also allow room for excellence, beauty, and bliss.
