Art Talks at Brand, formerly Art Talk Tuesday, is a monthly conversation that invites contemporary artists to discuss their work and the issues surrounding it. This talk features Amie Sillah.

Art Talks at Brand, formerly titled Art Talk Tuesday, is a monthly conversation that invites contemporary artists to discuss their work and the issues surrounding it, followed by a moderated Q&A with Brand staff member, artist, and writer Jennifer Remenchik. Artists are selected to reflect the diversity of the art scene of the greater Los Angeles area.

Amie Sillah is a visual artist born in The Bronx, NY, now living and working in Los Angeles. Sillah’s practice is lens-based and includes sculpture, performance, and video work. Her work centers on her family’s lived experiences immigrating from The Gambia to New York, and her relationship with photography as a medium to explore the complexities and diversities of Black diasporic life. Currently, in her practice, Sillah centers on topics of memory, performance, and erasure as an act of care. Sillah has presented her work at the Bowdoin College Museum of Art and has shown at thematic group exhibitions at the New Wight Gallery (2024), Black Box Gallery (2023), and the Black Image Center (2023).  

The series is sponsored by the Brand Associates and is free and open to the public.
