Join the Indo-American Heritage Museum to celebrate the creativity of wife and husband artists Indira and Karl Johnson in “Migrating Visions”. Indira’s roots in India emerge in sculptural forms utilizing recycled materials to address issues of permanence and decay, strength and vulnerability. With roots in Sweden, Karl incorporates the rhythm and beauty, chaos and inconsistencies of dynamic systems found in nature in multilayered designs. Lise Mckean, an art curator who incorporates interests in anthropology, activism and South Asia in her work, will moderate a discussion with the artists.
