Torreya Cummings Artists Talk

April 1, 6:00 pm7:00 pm

Free

Torreya will speak about their practice and unique methods of inquiry and conceptualization. Hot tea, and it’s free.

Torreya Cummings is a project-based visual artist working with ideas of space, place, and time, particularly around unlearning dominant narratives of the American west. Their work ranges from photo and sculpture to installation, performance, and video, with a particular emphasis on making spaces for action. Cummings uses drag aesthetics, substitutions, hardware store materials, the unsettling relationship of history and fiction, landscape, research, ambivalence, theater tricks, bad illusions, props, sets, and interpretive sites.

They have exhibited solo projects at the Oakland Museum of California, Aggregate Space Gallery, and more, and have presented performances with Machine Project, Southern Exposure, and the McEvoy Foundation for the Arts, among others. Cummings received an MFA in sculpture from California College of the Arts and lives and works in Emeryville, CA.
