Illness Revelations: A Preview & Discussion with Marina Tsaplina
April 16, 2019 @ 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm
Illness Revelations and the Bodies of History+Medicine+Us is a new Health Humanities Lab and Theater Studies-funded performance project that investigates the ‘eugenics impulse’ in each of us.
The project also explores the nature of care, oppression, dis/ability and healing. Historic archive research, Chronic Commons community workshops, and embodied artistic inquiry will culminate in a first public presentation of the project on April 25 as an opening event for the Disability in the Disciplines conference. You are invited to experience the project and to offer feedback during this special work-in-progress preview of Illness Revelations on Tuesday, April 16 at 12:30pm in the Wellness Center. Lunch will be provided. The presentation will be followed by a narrative medicine reflective writing prompt and a facilitated discussion.
