Save the date for an upcoming artist conversation with ahuva s. zaslavsky and Shoshana Gugenheim Kedem on Sunday, June 14, 2026, from 1:00–2:00 p.m.
Join Oregon-based artists Shoshana Gugenheim Kedem (visual artist and co-founder of Art/Lab Jewish Artists Fellowship) and ahuva s. zaslavsky (visual artist and poet, Between These Borders Wanders A Golem) as they share their current projects and more than 10 years of work creating programs and spaces for Jewish artists in Portland and beyond.
ahuva s. zaslavsky lives and works in Portland, Oregon, USA. In her work, ahuva looks into the relationship of space and place to memory and trauma, displacement, belonging and rejection, power struggles, and unsatisfied human desires, grounded in a personal read of Jewish mythology and reflections on the relationship between the creator and materials, the circular nature of creation, and the potential of transformation and change. Through writing, painting, printing, sculpting, and other mediums, her investigations permeate the social and domestic, the cultural and psychological.
Shoshana Gugenheim Kedem | שושנה גוגנהיים קדם is an American/Israeli social practice artist, Torah scribe, curator, and chutzpanit. Her work often rests in the borderlands where tradition and change meet, allowing for new forms to emerge. Shoshana’s work takes shape as large and small-scale collaborations with public and private audiences in a wide array of contexts, from prisons to houses of faith, museums, schools, rural fields, and rivers.
Free and open to the public. RSVPs recommended.
