6:00 PM Artist Talk: Joiri Minaya, Cara Romero, and Camille Seaman, moderated by Michaeline Crichlow

Followed by a reception and cash bar

Please join us for a panel discussion that brings together Joiri Minaya, Cara Romero, and Camille Seaman, three artists from Second Nature: Photography in the Age of the Anthropocene. Each artist brings a unique perspective from the different climatological zones in which they work. Seaman photographs vanishing ice in the Antarctic region; Romero imagines a female-oriented Indigenous-futurism in the Southwest; and Minaya investigates notions of femininity and identity in the Caribbean. Moderated by Michaeline Crichlow, Duke Professor of African and African American Studies, the discussion will illuminate the urgency of these artists’ practices and situate them within the context of the Anthropocene.
