March 20th meeting postponed to April 3rd.
We will open our session with a talk entitled “Reflections on Textiles and Science, a personal search through fibers” from Maria Davila and Eduardo Portillo, textile artists who live and work in Merida,Venezuela and have been devoted since 1983 to silk and textiles. Their work explores the relationship between people and landscape. In recent years they have approached the human geography of Merida and the conception of a body of work about an imagined Cosmos that they found in this mountainous region.
We will also hear from two to three other artists/scientists about their work in very short segments. From there we would like to open up the discussion to all (no breakouts this session) and dream out loud about what each of us thinks of the role of art to science or science to art.
