Online Conversations: Alia Malley & Douglas Marshall

WATCH: Friday, March 25

Alia Malley, joined by Douglas Marshall of Marshall Gallery on the occasion of their current exhibition Touch The Sun. Featuring a new series of works in the three-artist exhibition, Alia will discuss subjects explored in the series and the experimental process in her practice. Followed by an open Q&A.

Alia Malley is a Los Angeles based artist. She received her BA in Critical Film Studies from University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts, and her MFA in Visual Arts from University of California Riverside. She works with photography and video to explore modes of representation — specifically the roles of landscape, cinematic narrative of place, technology, and human geography in structures of power.

Touch The Sun is a three-artist exhibition exploring contemplative approaches to making photo-sculptural work in dialogue with the sun and the sky. In the main gallery, a decade-spanning installation of Chris McCaw’s unique, solar-scarred photographs is punctuated by the charred wooden sculptures of Roger Ackling, joined by Alia Malley’s altered aerial imagery in the project room.
