SUMMARY:ICA Miami presents ICA Speaks with artist Ellen Lesperance
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, January 20th at 7pm ICA Miami for a virtual conversation with artist Ellen Lesperance\, who will discuss how protest-based material culture influences her work and specifically how the paintings and knit sculptures on view at ICA Miami connect to historical periods of feminist activism. This is a FREE Event\, Open to the Public / RSVP HERE. \nICA Miami welcomes Ellen Lesperance\, whose exhibition “Amazonknights” is currently on view at the museum\, to ICA Speaks. Ellen Lesperance will discuss her engagement with feminist activism through her painting practice. Rendered in gouache on paper\, the artist uses the visual language of universal knitting shorthand to document and potentially recreate historic garments worn by women activists\, warriors\, and cultural figures. For the past decade\, one important focus of the artist’s work has been archiving protest knitwear worn by the separatist feminists of the Greenham Common Women’s Peace Camp who demonstrated against U.S. nuclear weapons storage in Berkshire\, England\, from 1981 to 2000. In 2020\, Lesperance published a book of this archive titled Velvet Fist. For ICA Speaks\, Lesperance will discuss how this protest-based material culture influences her work and specifically how the paintings and knit sculptures in her solo exhibition “Amazonknights” relate to these histories.
