In Conversation: Viewing Program 20/21 Artists Jagdeep Raina, Adam Liam Rose, InYoung Yeo

In this conversation, Viewing Program 20/21 artists Jagdeep Raina, InYoung Yeo, and Adam Liam Rose will join The Drawing Center's Artist In Residence, Lisa Sigal, to speak about their unique drawing practices, which include perpetually simulated surfaces, ancient traditions of Kashmir embroidery, and drawings which reference the relationship between Israeli and American safety infrastructures.

This program is presented as part of Viewing Program 20/21, a new initiative that builds upon the The Drawing Center’s longstanding support of contemporary artists. The program offers sixty participating artists mentorship in the form of virtual studio visits by The Drawing Center’s Artist in Residence and portfolio reviews by The Drawing Center’s curatorial team. From this pool of sixty artists, six have been selected to host an online public program.

Zoom Tips
- Log in 5-10 minutes before the workshop begins to avoid any technical delays.
- Use a desktop or laptop for the best image quality. A tablet will also do, but on a smartphone, the image may be too small.
- Make sure you have a stable wifi connection before the workshop begins

Jagdeep Raina

Jagdeep Raina is an artist and emerging writer based in Guelph, Ontario where he teaches at the School of Fine Art and Music at the University of Guelph. Raina holds an MFA in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design and has been an artist in residence at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Madison, Maine; the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown, Massachusetts; the Camden Arts Centre/Slade School of Fine Art in London; and the Miriam Dawood School of Art and Design in Lahore, Pakistan. Raina is currently a 2021 Paul Mellon Fellow at Yale University.
Adam Liam Rose

Adam Liam Rose (b. 1990) is an interdisciplinary artist working across sculpture, drawing, video and installation. Born in Jerusalem and raised mostly in the United States, his works investigate the aesthetic systems of power embedded within architecture. Rose draws inspiration from political realities in Israel/Palestine and the United States, often looking to structures of separation and control whose intentions either manifest outright, or slither beneath the surface. His works navigate ideas around artifact, “history,” and collective memory, uncovering how these distinct categories coalesce into feelings of place or “placeness.” Utilizing and subverting utilitarian materials including paper, textiles, and plywood, he creates a space for dialogue between the permanent and the ephemeral, the physical body, and the history embedded in objects.
InYoung Yeo

InYoung Yeo is an artist based in Seoul. Her work expands from artistic materialization of text, drawing, and installation works to curatorial projects with interdisciplinary approaches in topics of Gender, A.I. and Urbanization as her main area of research. Exploring various forms of manifestation in patterns, numbers and dimensions based on logical structures of the human 'mind' and coincidences in the multi-dimensional time and space, her questions start from researching differing micro-narratives with a focus on the cyclical ‘relation’. Yeo has put together and participated in various projects, exhibitions, residencies, talks, and workshops in Korea, Germany, Southeast Asia, among others.
