Artist Talk: Sopheap Pich: Transitions
Please join us for a lecture and conversation with artist Sopheap Pich. Following his presentation, Leslie Ureña, Mia’s Associate Curator of Global Contemporary Art, will join Pich for a conversation about the many states of transition present in his practice.
Sopheap Pich (born 1971) moved to the United States from Cambodia in 1984. He received his master’s in painting from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1999, and in 2002 returned to Cambodia. Shortly thereafter he started working mainly in sculpture with rattan, bamboo, and metal wire. His work appears in numerous collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, and the Museum of Arts and Design, all in New York; the Singapore Art Museum; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris; the Queensland Art Gallery in Brisbane; and the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo, among others.
Free tickets available starting December 8, 2025.
