Sarah Sze sits down with Julie Mehretu on CHANEL Connects

Sarah Sze and Julie Mehretu join Yana Peel, President of Arts, Culture & Heritage at CHANEL, for the latest episode of the CHANEL Connects podcast. Together, the artists reflect on New York in the 1990s as a home of creativity, their shared commitment to philanthropy, and the potential of abstraction as a space for radical invention.

'I think we are in a place where images and objects are alive, and create memory, and in conflict with one another, in a way that it never operated in our life before.' — Sarah Sze
