"This World of Shapes" Book Launch
Jeanie Riddle and David Ayala-Alfonso in conversation.
Join Artist Jeanie Riddle and Curator/Write David Ayala-Alfonso as they discuss Jeanie’s current exhibition at Livart and her first major monograph. Spanning multiple decades of practice, this book is a comprehensive presentation of Jeanie’s expansive artistic practice. Alongside her vast installation and painting work, This World of Shapes presents the artist’s writings, moving between memoir, creative writing, and poetry, offering generous insight into her thought, methods, and experiences. The book is an invitation to wander from the quiet introspection of abstraction towards the pulsating rhythm of personal stories, hardship, transformation and poetic reckoning.
