SMFA Visiting Artist Talk: Kianja Strobert

Feb 14, 2025, 12pm EST

Please join us at the SMFA for a talk and Q&A by visiting artist Kianja Strobert!

Kianja is known for dynamic explorations of acrylic, ink, and other materials that have established her as an innovative voice in contemporary abstraction. Her mixed-media sculptures and works on paper share a coarseness of texture and an expressive line. Strobert’s work translates the world into energetic planes of color, rendered in thick but refined brushstrokes that keep the eye in constant motion. The suggestion of movement or fluctuation results from the reactions of her various materials to their structural supports.

Open to Tufts university students, faculty, and staff.
