‘In Process’ at Watermill Center

Encouraging engagement between the Watermill Center residents and the community

Two Watermill Center artists-in-residence, Lilian Colosso and Lua Rivera, will present their work on Saturday from 2 to 4 p.m. as part of the center’s “In Process” series, which encourages engagement between the residents and the community.

Ms. Colosso, a Brazilian artist who lives in Los Angeles, attempts to reconcile the discordant relationship between her body and the outside world in her performance and video work. In “MetaHorizonte,” for example, she attached a plow to her body and pulled it for hours across the desert floor.

Ms. Rivera, who lives in Mexico, uses multidisciplinary resources such as intervention, collage, photography, and textiles to erase the boundaries between disciplines and to get beyond the walls of the gallery.

Prior to those presentations, at 1 p.m., the center will offer a guided tour of the building, grounds, gardens, art collection, and library. Reservations are required for the tour and the artists’ talks.

Artists’ Table, a farm-to-table meal prepared by Jason Weiner, a chef and restaurateur, will include an intimate presentation by Royce Weatherly, a fellow at the center, on Sunday at noon. Reservations are available for a donation of $75 per person.
