Mindful Mapping Workshop at MoMA

Mindful Mapping Workshop

Sat, Nov 23, 12:00–1:30 p.m.

MoMA, Floor 2, Creativity Lab

The Paula and James Crown Creativity Lab

Free, registration or RSVP required (through the link)

Join artists Jeannette Rodríguez Píneda and Alejandro Epifanio for a creative mapping workshop in which participants take part in mindful art-making focused on their lived experiences. Learn about the concept of the “four bodies,” which embodies the physical, mental, emotional, and interconnected self through guided mapping activities using mixed-media art-making materials. This program is a part of Creativity Lab’s first module, “Mind and Body,” which inspires us to use art to discover belonging within ourselves.

This 90-minute, in-person program is free. This workshop takes place in person at MoMA. To keep the workshop intimate, capacity is limited. Preregistration is required.

Jeannette Rodríguez Píneda is a queer, Afro-indigenous visual storyteller and education designer whose practice weaves together ethnobotany and plant-based photographic processes. Rodríguez Píneda’s work explores the interplay of reconstructed narratives, memory, permanence, Taíno spirituality, and postcolonial trauma. With a life practice deeply rooted in creativity as ancestral knowledge, they believe in a somatic understanding gained through the process of creation. Their pedagogical praxis connects the spheres of art history, decolonial epistemologies, inner development, museum education, and curriculum design. They have collaborated with such organizations as the Dia Art Foundation, The Museum of Modern Art, Queens Museum, Recess Arts, Socrates Sculpture Park, Storm King Arts Center, the Studio Museum in Harlem, and the Whitney Museum of American Art, among many others. Rodríguez Píneda is an active advisory member for the New England Teaching Artist Collective, a steering member for the Youth Organizing Culture Change Fund, and the founder of Movimiento, an initiative to strengthen BiPoc connection to land.

Alejandro Epifanio, born in 1982 in Santurce, Puerto Rico, is a multidisciplinary artist and cultural advocate. He earned a BFA from the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan and began his career balancing creative work with activism. As executive and artistic director of Loisaida Inc. since 2020, Epifanio has revitalized this historic Puerto Rican–founded organization, focusing on social change through arts and culture. Under his leadership, Loisaida has returned to its grassroots ethos, expanded its budget, and strengthened partnerships to support diverse community programming for residents, artists, and activists.
