Join us for the opening of Groundings, the final of four exhibitions on the theme of Care and Climate Justice, and a roundtable discussion with artists Shanequa Benitez, Emily Johnson, Courtney Desiree Morris, Sarah Rosalena, Laia Cabrera, and Isabelle Duverger. Through their diverse lenses, the artists will discuss ways of thinking, sensing, and responding to our environmental crisis beyond the registers of urgency and anxiety that dominate current discourse, and consider the ways that art relates to questions of care and justice under the conditions of racial capitalism and settler colonialism. Care in this sense includes practices of grief, remembrance, attention, slowness, kinship, and expansive imagination and Indigenous storytelling in anticipation of other futures.
This series is co-curated by Sarah Hamill and Izzy Lockhart and presented by a Humanities For All Times grant from the Mellon Foundation to teach climate justice across the humanities at Sarah Lawrence and Bronx Community College.

How does performance play into the construction of identity? How do we use performance to enact ideas of gender, class and power? What does it mean to perform different versions of ourselves – and how might that play into our understanding of what it means to be writers? In this craft talk, we’ll look at examples of performance in fiction, theater, dance and film. We will be doing writing exercises, so please come with whatever you need to write and fully participate.
