Welcome to From the Bench, SFCB's series of short studio tours with friends near and far. From favorite tools to works in progress, you never know what you'll learn about from these amazing artists.

This month we'll chat with Kathy Aoki, a multi-disciplinary visual artist who uses satire to critique the absurd value systems that dominate gender, pop culture, and politics. You can find out more at her website, kaoki.com.

Kathy also has a piece in the SFCB gallery exhibition "A Radical Alteration: Women’s Studio Workshop as a Sustainable Model for Art Making", on view from January 20-March 31, 2024.

Please visit our Vimeo page to see our past tours, previously known as Shelter in Studio.

Registration will close at noon on the day of the event.
