Free Agent


Two weeks ago I was invited to speak at the Leonardo LASER Talk “Resilience: From Cells to the Human Experience” via Zoom, and the video is up! If you were unable to attend, you can watch the full talk here. Thank you to organizer Pamela Winfrey and the ASU Leonardo LASER folks and to fellow speakers Carlo Maley and Chris Johnson for a wonderful panel discussion!


The full video is an hour long, so if you don’t have time for that at the moment, here’s a 1-minute clip in which Pam made an insightful observation that one of the unique ways in which I build community is through agency (and my response).


And in case you missed the previous post, I have an open call for artists for my next [virtual!] group show!

Call for Artists: DECAHEDRON


This year, Artists on the Lam (named “Best Arts Blog” in the Chicago Reader’s Best of Chicago issue) is celebrating its 10th anniversary! As part of the celebration, founder Jenny Lam (creator of such shows as 2016’s acclaimed LEXICON and 2012’s acclaimed I CAN DO THAT, which was named “Best Art Exhibit” in the 20th anniversary edition of NewCity’s Best of Chicago issue) is curating an international exhibition called DECAHEDRON. Many incredible artists will be participating (we invited artists from our past shows, as well as other artists we admire—get excited for the artist list announcement this spring!), but it wouldn’t really be an Artists on the Lam group show without an open call too:

All artists working in all mediums are welcome to submit art!

Because of the pandemic, the exhibition will be online. (To get an idea of how it might look like, in March 2020, the digital version of SLAYSIAN was launched, and it garnered quite a bit of press.)
