Dreams Gather Here: Artist Talk with Rachel Hakimian Emenaker
Glendale Library, Arts & Culture
Join us for a walkthrough of the current exhibition at ReflectSpace with Rachel Hakimian Emenaker exploring the works and themes present in the exhibition. ReflectSpace curators Ara & Anahid Oshagan will moderate the discussion.
Dreams Gather Here explores how the cultural memory of diasporic communities is preserved in the history of material objects. Moving across geographies that include Armenia, Syria, Russia, South America, and the United States, Emenaker’s work reflects on how people, objects, and gestures carry memory through time, forming the foundations of new futures and new cities. Employing batik (wax and dye), sculpture, tile and other media, Emenaker’s work is a meditation on diasporic architecture. Fragments, inherited gestures, and long-traveled materials converge in sculptural and installation-based works that speak directly to communities like Los Angeles, Moscow, Kessab, and Van—cities that witness, absorb, and hold countless diasporic and migratory stories and dreams.
The walkthrough will take place in the ReflectSpace gallery and the PassageWay.
This program is sponsored by the Glendale Library, Arts & Culture Trust and the Glendale Arts & Culture Commission through funding from the Urban Art Fund.
