Organized in conjunction with Raven Sanchez: Así Sea / So Be It, this panel discussion brings together featured artist Raven Sanchez, punk singer Alice Bag, and photographer Amina Cruz, whose shared roots in East L.A. and connections to Chicanx culture deeply influence each of their creative practices. Across disciplines, these visionary artists document, embody, and interpret the social and political fabrics of their upbringings, while pushing the bounds of their chosen mediums. Their work carries personal and collective histories, while expanding the proverbial archive to embrace that which is ephemeral, alive, and becoming. Moderated by ICA LA Curatorial Associate Emilia Shaffer-Del Valle, this intergenerational conversation between Sanchez, Bag, and Cruz will reflect on place and community as integral catalysts in their life and work.
