Matter Studio Gallery will host an artist talk with Malka Nedivi on Dec 4, from 2-5pm. The artist will present a performance excerpt from her upcoming one-woman show “A Story About Shoes” at 3pm. Nedivi’s current solo show "Transcending Matter" explores the emotional connection she had with her parents - both survivors of the Holocaust. Her process consists of layering and molding fabric, paper, and other mixed media in a way that is reminiscent of how her mother collected materials, perpetually patching and mending holes in worn garments. On view through December 11.
