Inspired by the holiday of Sukkot, a Jewish holiday celebrating the harvest, The Contemporary Jewish Museum has built its own sukkah (meaning "booth" or "hut") for gathering and community building in its Koret Taube Grand Lobby. Six local artists will each inhabit the Sukkah Studio as an open studio for one day between October 14-20, providing an inviting space for the artists to share their practice with visitors and work with interested people to make something together.
On Saturday, October 19, artist C.K. Itamura's participatory social practice project invites visitors of all ages to sit, sip tea with the artist, enjoy light snacks, reflect on the idea of creating new traditions, and paint hand-formed paper tea cups that will later become part of a large installation of over ten thousand pieces painted by hundreds of people over the course of multiple years.
C.K.Itamura is an autodidactic interdisciplinary artist, designer, and producer. Her work blurs the lines between mediums as she combines tangible materials, sensory prompts, book arts, photography, language, time, and space to create visual work, participatory projects, and conceptual installations.
