Who Are You? Open Call: Interview Participants for Artist Jenn Cacciola's Audio Tapestry

NY-based mixed-media artist, Jenn Cacciola is currently working on a large-scale, multi-layered tapestry piece that employs audio interviews and other recordings as a "soundtrack," to be projected from the piece during exhibitions. She is now in residency at the Sheen Center for Thought & Culture in Manhattan, conducting personal one-on-one interviews with and simultaneously creating portraits of volunteers, that will be an essential part of research for the piece. The project seeks to question how growth occurs while a person is affected by environments, decisions, circumstances, and the intersection between the self and others, using ecological/botanical metaphor for human growth in various social environments. Further information and sign-up steps available at the Eventbrite page.

Participants receive a print of the portrait created during their interview session. Prints will be mailed at a later date, once they are crafted from the original drawings.
