Yevgeniya Kaganovich and her student assistants will return to the studio to show us how to make a functional object from recycled plastic bags, the material Kaganovich uses in her durational installation, grow. We will learn the same techniques Kaganovich uses to transform this mundane material: cutting, fusing with heat, sewing, crocheting and stuffing.

grow is a system of interconnected plant-like forms simulating a self-propagating organism in multiple stages of development. Created from a singular material, recycled plastic bags, the system grows over time, its growth rate determined by the number of bags accumulated in our official recycling bin.
