 The Vibrant Work of Shakti Kroopkin

Showcased at Farm & Table until June 26

The work of local, contemporary artist  will be on view at Farm & Table. Shakti’s abstract “shapespaces” are rooted in her memories of the Chicago cityscape, combined with the vast raw beauty of New Mexico where she currently resides. The artist’s process exposes luminous spirit, imagination and movement while being grounded in her unique visual language of reoccurring lines, shapes, color and symbols. The raw expression of emotion and energy traverses the limitations of the finite world, inviting the viewer on a journey offering the freedom of infinite play.

A Feast for the Senses: A Pop-Up Dinner

Tuesday, March 29 | 7pm  | $75
At the Sanitary Tortilla Factory
403 2nd St SW, Albuquerque, NM 87102

Food is inherently sensory. It engages our senses every step of the way—we procure, prepare, salivate, and savor. But more importantly, food is social. It connects us to the people who provide for us, for whom we cook, and who eat with us at the same table.  Join us at the table as we take you on an exploration of all the senses during this pop-up dinner served up by Chef Carrie Eagle. Partners include SCA Contemporary Art, Edible Santa Fe, Farm & Table, and Sol Harvest Farm.
