Join multimedia artist Yashua Klos as he explores themes of identity, memory, and African Americans’ complex relationship to the American labor economy through his artwork.
Known for his woodblock printing and monotype techniques, Klos creates unique collage materials to build fragmented yet dimensional portraits. Reflecting on his own family’s history, Klos reimagines acts of resistance against exploitative labor systems, portraying figures in restful poses and the resilient beauty of wildflowers—symbols of strength and renewal.
Discover how his work sheds light on personal and collective histories, offering powerful visual meditations on identity and resilience.
Resilience and Rest: Artist Talk with Yashua Klos is supported in part by the John and Robyn Horn Foundation and the Alice L. Walton Foundation.
