Visiting artist to present art installation about Strawberry Hill today

Larisa David, a visiting artist from Romania, will present “7 Views from the Hill,” an installation of audio interviews and reenactments conducted with residents of the Strawberry Hill Neighborhood, from noon to 5 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 9, at Paragraph Gallery, 23 E. 12th St., Kansas City, Mo.

David’s appearance was in partnership with the Charlotte Street Foundation. Her work was completed during the past five weeks.

The audio content recorded with members of the Slavic community from Strawberry Hill explores how they relate to their home, their family history and the second wave of immigration, as well as reflecting on their identity as American citizens.

Those who attend Sunday’s event are invited to return on Monday evening to hear from David about her time in Kansas City, and the development of the project.

That Monday event will be from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. for public gallery hours, and then a talk at 6 p.m. Monday at the Paragraph Gallery.
