Stirring the Pot: I Don't Cook

Join artist, Rosemary Meza DesPlas, on Thursday, March 7th at 7:00pm within the Connie Gotsch Theater for a progam to honor Women's History Month. 

The evening will include three of her video artworks during the event, Stirring the Pot: I Don't Cook. The evening will include an International Food Fair hosted by CAB.  Women in attendance will be given flowers by the Student Government. Following the screening, cupcakes will be available in the lobby. There will be an Q & A session with the artist after the video screening as well.

DesPlas blends original poetry, visual art, and performance. By drawing upon family history and cultural heritage, she personalizes socio-cultural issues. She forefronts herself in these videos; thereby, alluding to the complex experience of being an American, Indigenous, Latina woman. Satirical humor underpins her inquiries into gender issues, socio-political topics, and cultural stereotypes.

“Our House” was an official selection of the 2022 Monologues & Poetry International Film Fest. “Miss Nalgas USA 2022” was previously screened in New York at Amos Eno Gallery and form & concept gallery in Santa Fe. This will be the debut video screening of her new work “Pinto Beans”.
