Join Santa Monica College Communication & Media Studies Department for an artist talk with Nehemiah Cisneros, whose large-scale paintings are currently on display in a solo exhibition in SMC’s Pete & Susan Barrett Gallery. Cisneros will talk about his artistic process, how his experiences growing up in Inglewood affect his work, and how he has been inspired by the aesthetics of California’s lowbrow and street visual culture — as well as historical iconography that reaches into the past — to explore themes about the human condition and behavior. He will also discuss his educational journey and the important role SMC played in his life.
