Join Woomin Kim as she discusses living and working as a Korean artist in the US, the women artists who have inspired her, and creating dynamic sculptures and installations made from found objects, fabric, glass, collected dust and other materials that are emblematic of our historical and contemporary existence. "Being seen as a foreign material myself in this country," she says, "made me think about movements of people and materials in this global world (where things are from, how and why they are here) and politics and the power dynamics that are underlying in their movement."

Engage with professional musician and Professor Felice Pomeranz (The Gilded Harps of Boston and Berklee College of Music/Boston Conservatory at Berklee) as she discusses how the musical instrument of the harp, in its many forms, tells the hidden stories and little-known histories of women in music. From ancient and early modern times, to the Baroque courts of France, to the male-dominated concert halls of Eighteenth and Nineteenth Century Europe, the harp became increasingly personified as a symbol of empowerment and women’s struggle for political and artistic independence.

Artist talk with Core Ensemble’s featured actor, Shinnerrie Jackson, as she discusses this dynamic chamber music theatre performance celebrating the life and times of four powerful African American women: renowned novelist and anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston, ex-slave and fiery abolitionist Sojourner Truth, exuberant folk artist Clementine Hunter, and fervent civil rights worker Fannie Lou Hamer. With a musical score drawn from the heart-felt spirituals and blues of the Deep South, the urban exuberance from the Jazz Age, and concert music by African American composers.
The full recording of this production will not be aired during the artist talk. It is recommended to watch this performance before the event.
