Tomorrow, Oct. 5 at 6pm , Mann Gallery at 13th Street Winery will be hosting an artist talk between myself and Dr. Lauren Corman.
Dr. Lauren Corman is an Associate Professor of Sociology (Brock University) and an environmental sociologist who teaches in the areas of environmental thought, contemporary social theory, and critical animal studies. Her research centralizes anti-racist, anti-colonial, queer, and feminist understandings of social relations and the more-than-human world.
Dr. Corman is currently working on a book project entitled, Zoonoses: A Critical Animal Studies Bestiary, with Dr. Chloë Taylor, which will feature 26 original works by local painter and colour worker, Geoff Farnsworth. Drawing on years of friendship, and a mutual aim to highlight the subjective worlds of human and nonhuman animals, the collaboration will feature critical perspectives on COVID-19, stories of animals associated with the pandemic, and the precarious connections that link us.
This is a free event with limited seating.
