Material Possibility: A Forum on Making from Failing

Graduate students from the University of Washington School of Art + Art History + Design and artist Eric-Paul Riege discuss their practices and the tension between function and failure in materials. The forum opens a group show at the Jacob Lawrence Gallery and closes Eric-Paul Riege’s solo exhibition at the Henry Art Gallery.

Lineup

His practice celebrates hózhó—the Diné worldview encompassing beauty, balance, goodness, and harmony—and pays homage to generations of weavers in his family.
