Visual Art Workshop, Day 2: Kenyatta A.C. Hinkle

  • 2015 Fall Dangerous Conversations: Raced/Gendered/Classed Violence in the USA

Navigating the Historical Present

Kenyatta A.C. Hinkle

This will be a two-day studio- and group-discussion-based workshop in which  students will indulge, experiment and engage with facets of Kenyatta A.C. Hinkle’s practice that involve interventions upon historical documents and hegemonic single narratives that dominate the collective and personal identities of people labeled as Other. This workshop will serve as a catalyst of critical engagement around the concepts of power and who has the ability to authorize a single narrative about one group of individuals and the ensuing dangers that can arise from the abuses of power within our global society in the past, present and future. This workshop is open to Scripps students only and registration will be required at least one week in advance. Please contact (909) 621-8237 or HumanitiesInstitute@scrippscollege.edu for more information.

Kenyatta A.C. Hinkle is an interdisciplinary visual artist, writer and performer. Her practice fluctuates between collaborations and participatory projects with alternative gallery spaces within various communities to projects that are intimate and based upon her private experiences in relationship to historical events and contexts. A term that has become a mantra for her practice is the “Historical Present,” as she examines the residue of history and how it affects our contemporary world perspective. She is an alumna of the California Institute of the Arts’ Interschool program in which she received her MFA in Art & Critical Studies/Creative Writing. Her artwork and experimental writing has been exhibited and performed at The Studio Museum in Harlem, NY; Project Row Houses in Houston, TX; and The Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, CA. Hinkle’s work has been reviewed by the Los Angeles Times, LA Weekly, Artforum, The Huffington Post, The Washington Post and The New York Times. Hinkle was listed on The Huffington Post’s “Black Artists: 30 Contemporary Art Makers Under 40 You Should Know.” Hinkle will be representing the United States as a Fulbright Scholar to Lagos, Nigeria 2015-16.

Her exhibition, “Kentifrican Interventions: Navigating the Historical Present” will be on display at the Clark Humanities Museum at Scripps College from November 13 to December 2, 2015. Please click here for information about the Exhibition Opening Reception on November 19, 2015.
