  • Workshop led by
    Anamaya Farthing-Kohl

    With an interest in collaboration, artist Anamaya Farthing-Kohl invites the public to help in defining, circulating, or discovering their work. This work often focuses on mundane objects that have presence but that typically go unnoticed. In their work as a teaching artist, Farthing-Kohl engages students through activity and challenges them to ask questions. They completed their MFA at UC Berkeley in 2024. 

This two-part workshop integrates an interactive gallery tour with a related art project; each session lasts about an hour and a half. Sign up in the Art Lab 10 minutes ahead of the session, which begins with a short gallery tour that starts at 11:30 AM.

After exploring Françoise Grossen’s monumental textile piece and looking at spaces in BAMPFA’s building, make your own rope sculpture in response to an architectural space. This can be a space at home, in the museum, or somewhere else. Think about how the scale of your sculpture relates to your chosen site. Your piece may be a model for a work that responds to a larger space.
