Soft Services conceptual artist Chloë Bass will chat with Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore, author of the genre-shirking book The Freezer Door, at this outdoor event. They'll touch on their mutual interest in "everyday intimacies" and the ways in which colonialism, alienation, and policing prevent interpersonal care and empathy. Bass will provide additional context on the somatic experiences possible within Soft Services, and Sycamore will share readings from The Freezer Door (the book was described as "language...wielded in expert hands" by The New York Times).
