The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

Join Weaving Data featured artist Shelley Socolofsky for a material conversation on slow looking, slow making, and the healing properties of weaving and touch. With an art practice grounded in storytelling, myth remaking, and ritual, Socolofsky’s gallery talk invites a deeper interrogation of the binary. Specifically, where weaving, a process of information storage through a binary system of interlocking threads mirroring the 0’s and 1’s of computer programming, becomes alternately understood as a refusion; an act of resistance, a gesture of reclaiming and linking. This process reformulates the binary into a relationship of reciprocity through the merging of high/ low culture, labored work/ pleasure, trauma/ healing, science and the supernatural.

This program is free and open to the public. ASL interpreting will be provided.
