Watch our earnest artist talk with Kathy Aoki who shared a behind the scenes look at the conceptual nature of her work and how she produces it. Kathy Aoki has created many satirical, museum-style installations on themes ranging from Hello Kitty Monument, to makeup-dominated landscapes, to pop-diva Gwen Stefani's mortuary temple. How does she create these narratives and the extremely wide-range of "artifacts" and "historical" artworks that accompany them? Find out at this artist talk with our Q&A!
