First-year MA students at the Center for Human Rights and the Arts present works in progress developed in their core requirement in art making, co-taught by artist Robin Frohardt and artist and CHRA alum Oscar Gardea. These works engage with the expressive potential of everyday objects, transforming found materials such as waste into artworks. Using puppetry, masks, shadows, and cardboard, the students demonstrate how simplicity and precarity in materials can offer powerful tools and forms of storytelling.
Transportation: Parking is available on the Massena campus for the duration of this event. For those without access to a car, the CHRA-Massena Shuttle will offer transportation to Bard students, staff, and faculty between Kline Bus Stop (Southbound) and the Massena Campus Roundabout. The shuttle departs the Annandale campus at 9:40 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. and departs the Massena campus at 1:30 p.m. and 1:50 p.m. Any and all persons riding Bard Shuttles must be Bard students, faculty, or staff members with a valid and legible Bard ID.
