Asia Society Texas welcomes artist Kana Harada for a virtual discussion of her work presented in Divine Spark: Kana Harada, the exhibition on view through January 9, 2022. Harada has created a visual world of her own, drawing the natural world into museum spaces through intricate sculptures and paintings. Featuring a series of images produced by Harada during the pandemic, the exhibition highlights the artist's work as an expression of hope and light. Please join us for insights into the artist's inspirations, processes, and techniques.

The artist will be joined in conversation with Bridget Bray, and the audience will be welcome to ask questions throughout the discussion.
