Also presented as a part of ESCNY’s Fall 2026 Series and SUAM’s Reclaim: The Art of Recology exhibition, please join a conversation between visual artist Rodney Ewing and Professor Delali Kumavie. Ewing and Kumavie will explore the stories carried by objects and landscapes—including histories of migration, displacement, consumption, and technological change—and consider how artistic practices of reclaiming and reimagining materials can challenge conventional distinctions between waste and value, disposal and renewal. The conversation will discuss the intersections of race, technology, ecology, material culture, and the Black experience
