Poetics of Transformation I: Drs. Eve Zaritsky and Jaime Ocampo – The Science of Change

June 14, 2017
6:00 – 8:00 PM
Southern Exposure
RSVP here, limited to 25 participants

Eve Zaritsky and Jaime Ocampo are physicians who practice in the Bay Area. In response to the themes touched on in Curious Poses, they will present their work as healers, shedding light on the compatibility between humans and other animals – our “significant otherness,” per eminent author Donna Haraway – as well as the micro- and macro-biomes or environments that bind us together.

From the ways a pet can fortify a child’s immune system to other significant, topical matters touching on our complex relationships with animals, Drs. Zaritsky and Ocampo will field questions about the intricate poetics of physiological change.

Radical Art Theory Nights are conversations about art theory, art history, or research-based art practices that reflect on narratives of the historically marginalized. Visiting writers, curators, and artists contend with both current and canonized concerns, critically engage with texts, and lead open community discussions.

Radical Art Theory Nights are facilitated and organized by Ángel Rafael Vázquez-Concepción & Leila Weefur in partnership with Southern Exposure’s Artists in Education program.
