Polese will discuss her creative process and the critical role of art in addressing contemporary issues. Through an exploration of the historical influence of thread, weaving, and tapestries, alongside cultural shifts in 20th-century Europe and Italy, the discussion will emphasize the importance of understanding materials and cultural traditions in art creation. Polese will share her journey from two-dimensional to three-dimensional art forms.
