Lunch + Studio Visit with Rina Banerjee
Friday, Feb. 2, 12-1:30 pm | Students Only | RSVP

Please join the Moody Student Collaborative for an exclusive meet-and-greet for Rice students with Artist-in-Residence Rina Banerjee at the Moody Center for the Arts!

Banerjee's artworks are influenced by her multinational experience and personal history as an immigrant. She is interested in the lasting effects of colonialism and larger questions of identity, climate change, and exchange in a globalized world. Students will be able to see the artist demonstrate her artmaking process, ask questions, and learn about the materials Banerjee uses to create her vibrant paintings, drawings, and mixed-media assemblage sculptures.

Please RSVP to receive lunch, students can arrive anytime between 12 and 1 p.m. Spaces are limited!
