Details

Artist Camille Hoffman uses materials collected from childhood and her everyday life to craft imaginary landscapes that are grounded in accumulation, rehabilitation, personal narrative, and historical critique. Taking inspiration from the Philippine weaving and Jewish storytelling traditions of her ancestors, along with traditional techniques from her academic training, she interweaves images with found objects to reveal seamless yet textured transcultural contradictions.

See and Missed will be complemented by educational and community programming including free family art activities, free lectures, and a catalog featuring essays by Ryan Buyco (Associate Professor of the Ethnic Studies Department at Cal Poly), Gina Apostal (award-winning novelist with a focus on Philippine colonial history), and Leilani Lynch (curator at The Bass Museum of Art).
