Join notable Milwaukee voices from the fields of art, education, and language as they reflect on the works in “Erin Shirreff: Permanent Drafts.” Through their varied lenses, we’ll explore themes of transformation, perception, and the spaces between seeing and understanding. Rooted in mixed media, Shirreff’s work invites us to slow down, to notice what shifts across materials and moments, and to reflect on what is preserved, altered, or lost in translation. Together, we’ll consider how both art and language mediate our experience of the world and reveal the complexity beneath its surface.
