SUMMARY:Art Talk and Exhibition: The Souls of Resilience
DESCRIPTION:ART TALK AND EXHIBITIONTHE SOULS OF RESILIENCEMonday\, November 3rd | 6:30pm – 8:30pm \n\n\n\nThis residency is a collaboration with Global Lounge who is supporting music by Classical Queens during the reception beginning at 6:30pm. Art Talk at 7:30pm. \n\n\n\nfree \n\n\n\nat Surel’s Place: 212 E. 33rd Street in Garden City \n\n\n\nDuring her residency\, artist Yidan Guo focused on creating new portraits of immigrant and refugee women—rooted in deep connection: she visited Boise’s local immigrant and refugee communities\, conducting heartfelt interviews to infuse her work with their lived experiences. \n\n\n\nAt this event\, you’ll encounter these new\, high-quality portraits alongside existing pieces from her ongoing series Women Who Are Immigrants and Refugees. Together\, the works weave a richer\, more nuanced tapestry of the diverse experiences within our community. \n\n\n\nThis is your chance to engage deeply: explore the exhibition\, hear the stories behind the portraits\, and join Yidan for an intimate art talk. She’ll share her creative process\, the challenges she navigated\, and the profound insights gained through this project—followed by a Q&A where you can dive deeper. \n\n\n\nCome connect with art that honors resilience\, identity\, and the threads that bind our community. \n\n\n\nBIOGRAPHY \n\n\n\nYidan’s journey as a painter has spanned thousands of miles\, from her birthplace in China to her present home in the US. This migratory experience has deeply influenced her choice of subject matter: women who are immigrants and refugees.  As an Asian immigrant and a woman artist\, there’s a shared bond\, a collective experience of navigating new cultures\, which forms the core of her creative exploration. \n\n\n\nAt the age of 15\, Yidan began eight years of rigorous training at China Central Academy of Fine Arts – the most prestigious art school in China and earned her Bachelor of Art degree in Chinese Painting. In 2005 she earned a master’s degree in Philosophy from Renmin University of China and a MFA from Idaho State University in 2024. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis residency is in collaboration with Global Lounge.

He was born and raised in Kansas City\, Missouri but moved to Southern California in the seventies to pursue his artistic career. \n\n\n\nHe worked for 20 years at the Walt Disney Animation Studio with credits including the supervising character lead in the creation of the animation of Rafiki in the The Lion King and Quasimodo in The Hunchback of the Notre Dame. You can see the many films he has worked on at his IMBD profile here. He has also illustrated many books – one of them being the The Lion King book published after the movie.  \n\n\n\nMarshall describes his work as autobiographical. “My own style is blended with traditional techniques to create an enriched view of the life I’ve experienced. I placed myself in the scene along with other characters from my life. I am taking a look at the positives in everyday life; the perspectives\, traditions\, and routines of being outside of the struggles.”
