    Janelle Iglesias on Art Identity and Collaboration
    2026/07/11
    Art can connect personal history, community, and social change. Janelle Iglesias, Assistant Professor of Studio Art at UC San Diego, traces her path from a multicultural childhood in Queens to anthropology, ceramics, sculpture, and public art. She explains how objects in her family home sparked an interest in material culture, and how a reconciliation program in South Africa changed her view of what artists can contribute to society. Iglesias also describes nearly two decades of collaboration with her sister Lisa through Las Hermanas Iglesias, including projects involving their mother. Her teaching emphasizes play, curiosity, resourcefulness, and the idea that sculpture can be made from almost anything. By linking creative practice with care, connection, and community, Iglesias shows how art can help people respond to uncertainty and imagine more equitable futures.

  • The Rescue: Centering Autistic Voices in Film

    The Rescue: Centering Autistic Voices in Film
    2026/07/25
    Authentic autism representation begins with listening to autistic people and including them in stories about their lives. Seth Bakke, producer, writer and director of The Rescue, explains how his autistic cousin Aaron and a poem by autistic typer Peter Tran inspired the film. Bakke describes working with Aaron on screen, consulting the Tran family and adapting the set to support his needs. Autistic typers Otto Lana and Peter Tran, joined by Steven Tran, a postdoctoral researcher at UC San Diego, discuss where the film reflects their experiences, where it simplifies communication through typing and why creative freedom must remain grounded in lived experience. They address presuming competence, the difference between hearing and listening, and the need for autistic actors and advisers. Their participation challenges stereotypes and helps audiences see they should be full participants in their own stories.
