Forged Connections: Shaped by the River: A Conversation with Cara Wassenberg

About this event

@

Forged Connections is the Metal Museum’s after-hours conversation series exploring how metal connects art, people, place, and everyday life. Each month, artists, metalsmiths, scholars, community partners, and professionals from fields such as engineering, design, public art, preservation, and city planning come together for accessible conversations about the role metal plays in our communities. From jewelry and sculpture to bridges, buildings, tools, and public spaces, Forged Connections invites lifelong learners to look more closely at the material world around them.

Join artist Cara Wassenberg for a conversation about her artist residency at the Metal Museum and the new work she developed during her time in Memphis. Wassenberg works across glass, copper, and steel, creating artworks shaped by process, landscape, memory, and organic form. In this talk, Wassenberg will share how she approaches material research and how the Mississippi River shaped the direction of her work. Participants will gain insight into an artist’s process as ideas take form through making, experimentation, and place.
