How can visual arts engage personal testimonies to reach new audiences? Join us for a methods workshop led by Ice in the Heartland artist, Carolina Jones Ortiz on creating interview-based representational art. Jones Ortiz shares how she created artworks using community interviews and public health research to bring the issues of mass deportation to new audiences. Participants will practice applying the GIRA method (Graphic, Interview-based, Representational, Acompañmento) to texts from the current deportation crisis. All materials provided.
