Speculative Pentimenti Catalog

ICI-SP-cover-w2

Working within the framework of the ICI’s 2012 research theme of “phantom worlds” and fueled by our long-held belief that all human activities leave behind a visual trace, Speculative Pentimenti presents a visual exploration of contemporary society through the works of artist and longtime associate Sande Sisneros.

The catalog features full-color images alongside essays from curator Sue-Na Gay, and ICI Director Lise Patt.
