In "Reencuentros: allá nos vemos/See you there," seven contemporary lens-based artists encounter time, home, (dis)placement, movement, stasis and becoming against the backdrop of the permeable US-Mexico border. Fedella Lizeth, Celeste Hernández, Jamil G. Baldwin, Aldo Cervantes, Elina Gonzalez, Alkaid Ramirez, and Raylene B. Olalde utilize photography and its intimacy to delve into the ubiquitous nature of family, home and land, examining the separations between people and place–how can home transcend the distinction between here and there? What does it mean to revisit what was once familiar? "Reencuentros: allá nos vemos/See you there" is organized by the SDSU Art Galleries. The exhibition is co-curated by William Camargo and Alexa Ramírez Posada. Programming is supported by the School of Art and Design, the Richard Anthony Marks Endowment and the College of Professional Studies and Fine Arts. SDSU Art Galleries on Instagram and Facebook

Step into a world of delightful distortion and curious proportions in this whimsical art class inspired by Alice in Wonderland. Participants will explore the imaginative realm of scale through the playful technique of blind contour drawing, (drawing while looking at the object, but not at the paper) creating expressive and unexpected outlines of figures and objects from the story—think tiny teacups, towering rabbits, and chairs that are comically out of size. Once the drawings are complete, we’ll bring them to life using loose, flowing watercolor washes that celebrate spontaneity and surprise—just like Wonderland itself. This class invites participants to embrace imperfection, play with scale, and enjoy the creative freedom that comes with letting go of expectations. Space is limited, registration is recommended. Please register each participant individually. Registered spots will be released to drop-ins the day of if not checked in within the first 15 minutes of workshop.
