  • Place Stigma, the idea that perceptions about a neighborhood can be used to disparage an area or people from it, is a concept whose affects are widespread. In this dynamic talk on their book, "Unequal Neighbors"¸ authors Kristen Hill Maher and David Carruthers examine the role that place stigma has in reinforcing real and imagined inequalities in San Diego and Tijuana. While San Diego is often represented as a place of economic vitality and safety, Tijuana is portrayed as a zone of poverty and crim. But neither of these assumptions represent the reality on the ground. Based on original empirical materials, this book looks at the ways the cities have been represented through media, everyday talk, economic relations, and local tourism discourses to show how these difference result in asymmetric borders between places.

  • Note: this exhibition is viewable from the sidewalk on 25th St. From San Diego Weekend Events (KPBS arts preview): Mortis Studio was founded in 2016 by Taylor Johnson and Dustyn Peterman as an art, animation, video and graphic design creative agency. They're opening a new studio in Golden Hill this week, with an art exhibition to kick things off. "Soft" is a collection of works by local textile artist Denja Harris of Brown Acid Goods, and it'll be on view beginning Friday through Jan. 16, 2022. I love the way Harris plays with colors and shapes in her thick, rug-like tufted fiber works, and the patterns feel just as vintage as they do modern and surprising. The opening reception is Friday, with food and drink from the popular TNT Pizza. —Julia Dixon Evans, KPBS From the organizers: Mortis Studio is pleased to present SOFT, the debut solo exhibition by Denja Harris. Opening reception: Friday, Dec. 3, 2021, 6 - 9 p.m. Food and drinks will be provided by @tntsdpizza. Exhibition dates will run through January 16th. Denja Harris is a textile artist based out of San Diego, CA. Her work explores experimental functional art with an emphasis in nostalgia, color, shapes, and texture. Each piece reflects work that is never duplicated, revealing how function and design can be combined to enhance a space.
