Guest host Kofi Fosu Forson talks with Jenna Basso Pietrobon, a multidisciplinary artist skilled in a variety of mediums including, painting, sculpture, architecture, design, performance and activism. Pietrobon shares with the Whitehot Art World audience her revolutionizing of the mystery of fate, art and destiny. How a trip back to her grandparents home of Nove di Bissano in Italy changed the course of her art platform.
Currently based in Paris, she touches on her experience in New York working in a patriarchal system. How trauma from that broadened her activism for women silenced, and oppressed in hope of gender equality. Central in her art experience is how she manages recovery from trauma in an activist and art-making role, building on a form of inclusivity with the involvement of artisans in her art-making process.
