Artist Talk: Healing Forward by Amber Robles Gordon
Community Folk Art Center

Community Folk Art Center
805 E. Genesee St., Syracuse

Join us for an artist talk on "Healing Forward: Rituals of Self Repair, Cultivation of Community, and Collective Activation" with Amber Robles-Gordon, moderated by Dr. Tanisha M. Jackson.

"Healing Forward: Rituals of Self-Repair, Cultivation of Community, and Collective Activation" is a retrospective exhibition that traces the throughline of healing — personal, communal, spiritual, and ecological — across the artistic career of Amber Robles-Gordon. Bringing together installations, quilts, assemblages, and collages created over more than a decade, the exhibition reveals how healing has functioned not only as a thematic concern, but as a methodology and ethical framework within the artist's practice.
