Poetry. Photography. Handmade books.
Join us for an afternoon celebrating the quiet resilience of the desert—where 150-year-old cacti become muses and spines hold stories.
Artist Siuding presents her handmade poetry photobook, inspired by time spent at b minor artist residency in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona. There, an 11-armed saguaro standing for over a century sparked a meditation on survival, beauty, and belonging.
Expect readings, performance, and conversation with Siuding and Charlie Tang.
