So, how do you curate a show about Monica Sjöö – an artist whose work spans so many causes and communities?
Co-curators of Monica Sjöö: The Great Cosmic Mother Jo Widoff and Amy Budd spent years researching and planning this first retrospective of Moncia Sjöö’s work. In this talk (recorded 17 November 2023) they discuss the process of piecing together information from the Sjöö estate’s archive, how to sensitively display spiritual works within a gallery setting, and who Sjöö’s greatest artistic influences were.
