Event Description |
She Is Fierce: The Art of Joyce Cutler-Shaw, written and directed by Becky Cohen, is a 2016 documentary on Cutler-Shaw’s intense body of work, featuring an in-depth interview with the artist and commentary from Erika Torri, Lynda Claassen, Gail Goldman, and UC San Diego Professor Mark Whitehead. A graduate of the UC San Diego Visual Arts Department, Cutler-Shaw’s long career has taken many forms: ice works, artists’ books, reflective light sculpture, drawing, museum installations, and large public commissions. Her subjects are human identity and the natural world; her themes are evolution and survival – “from reptile into bird, from mammal to human, and from human, perhaps, to humane.” Cutler-Shaw uses drawing “as a way of knowing, as a mode of inquiry, as a visual language.” |
