An artist’s methodology is rooted in grit and designed by ingenuity. So how do we develop those qualities? What can we do to embolden our minds and extend the reach of our artistic practice. This week's conversation features Ana Vizcarra Rankin
Organized by artist and PAFA staff member Matt Herzog, this artist-centric group conversation will be driven by weekly themes, featured guest artists, and the needs of our maker community in order to engage fellow artists also tackling the challenges of managing a creative at-home practice.
More about the artist: Ana Vizcarra Rankin makes drawings, paintings, and sculptures about travel and cartography. Recently she has been studying star maps and images captured using powerful telescopes and other mediating technologies such as global positioning systems. These images are transmuted into art that explores the phenomenological sense of being in and of the universe.
An Uruguayan American artist based in Philadelphia, Vizcarra Rankin has exhibited extensively and received various awards. Vizcarra Rankin holds an MFA from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and a BA in art history from Temple University. Her work resides in international, public, corporate, and private collections.
