Special Artist Talk: Mayra Pimentel

  • Location: ISM Chicago Gallery, Chicago
  • Date: Thursday, October 11, 2012, 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

The ISM Chicago Gallery presents a special artist talk in conjunction with the Fragile Relations: Art, Nature and Environment exhibition.

Mayra Pimentel will discuss her pinhole camera photographs at the Illinois State Museum Chicago Gallery on Thursday, October 11, 2012 at noon. This event is free and open to the public.

As a child, Mayra, liked looking for facial features in people that could be similar to those of animals. This series takes her childhood imaginings and extends them a bit. Mayra Pimentel is from Chicago University.
