Talk or Interview Designing Memory: Visual Storytelling with Dave Eassa
Talk or Interview Designing Memory: Visual Storytelling with Dave Eassa
How can exhibition design support emotional connection, healing, and shared experience? Join artist Dave Eassa and the curatorial team at the California Center for the Arts Museum for an intimate preview of Head Above the Clouds, opening to the public in early October.
This special program provides a behind-the-scenes look at the human-centered design strategies that shape the exhibition, from seating sculptures to participatory elements that invite visitors to become co-authors. The conversation will explore how layout, color, scale, and materials were intentionally used to evoke tenderness, grief, joy, and connection.
The preview will conclude with a Q&A.
