Join artist Max Sarmiento and Curator of Visual Arts Rachel Raphaela Gugelberger in conversation about Sarmiento’s site-specific installation in the Sunroom, where dioramas, sculptures, and a stage set create the blueprint for a folkloric performance on identity and grief. Sarmiento is one of Wave Hill’s two 2023 New York Community Trust Van Lier Fellows.

“Meet the Artist” is an ongoing series of conversations between exhibiting artists and curatorial team members at Wave Hill. The program provides an opportunity for Wave Hill visitors, the artist’s community and others to learn more about an artist’s creative process and the themes that shape their work.

Registration encouraged but not required, online or by calling 718.549.3200 x251.
