Artist Lesley Dill discusses the role of language in her work, which ranges from sculpture and photography to opera and large-scale community projects. She will screen a clip from 2008 opera Divide Light, present a multi-tiered project, Tongues on Fire: Visions & Ecstasy, in collaboration with the Emmanuel Baptist Church Spiritual Choir in Winston-Salem, NC, and will also show images from her fall 2010 installation Hell Hell Hell Heaven Heaven Heaven: Sister Gertrude Morgan and Revelation (New Orleans) and from her spring 2012 installation, Faith and the Devil (New York City). This program is free with Museum admission.
