Ziegler\u2019s talk is free and open to the public.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI source the immaterial through the material,\u201d Ziegler says. \u201cMy practice includes drawing, sculpture, assemblage, and artist\u2019s books. I work with mirrored glass, tar paper, cyanotype, and draw with an electrode on a copper table. These arcane materials, with their sometimes unpredictable outcome, allow for accident and serendipity as well as ongoing refinement of technique: chemistry is the emotion of matter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ziegler\u2019s work has been displayed nationally and internationally, including a solo exhibition titled \u201cWork in progress\u201d at the Kansas City Art Institute in 2013.
