Local Views at PAMM: Ya La’Ford
October 26, 2017 @ 6:30 pm - 7:00 pm
Thursday, October 26th from 6:30-7pm join us at the Pérez Art Museum Miami for their in-gallery tour program, Local Views at PAMM, where select local artists will speak about 3-5 works of art currently on view at the museum. This month, artist Ya La’Ford will lead the tour, known for site-specific installations of her bold, geometric paintings. She builds each work with a unique vocabulary of intersecting lines and gestural repetition. Her labyrinth patterns are both an exploration of self and place, as well as a reflection of her Jamaican background.
Unlike our traditional academic discussions, Local Views at PAMM gives visitors a first-hand interaction with local artists by creating conversations centered around art and the creative process. This casual 30-minute conversation is offered on the fourth Thursday of each month.
