PSU Textile Arts | Artist Talk with Lauren Baccus

The Textile Arts program at Portland State University welcomes Lauren to discuss her work as a textile artist, writer, and researcher

Lauren Baccus is an educator, textile artist, and independent researcher whose work centers on the construction of Caribbean identity through textile, craft and costume. Deeply influenced by masquerade and the Caribbean’s legacy of resistance and storytelling through cloth and clothing, her work encompasses live public performance, extratextual archives, and the digital space as a site for decolonization. Her most recent project, Salt and Aloes, is an ongoing exploration and rethinking of Caribbean material culture over the past century.
