Altered Access Opening Night: Introduction and Emily Barker
Hear from Paul Ha, Director, MIT List Visual Arts Center and Emily A. Garner, Senior Manager, Campus and Public Programs, MIT List Visual Arts Center for a welcome and introduction to the 2023 Max Wasserman Forum: Altered Access.
Then, Emily Barker sets the stage for the forum by considering the built environment, economic systems, and societal norms that are damaging and inadequate for every person, plant, and animal on earth. Noting that we are all inseparable and dealing with the same brittle foundations for life, Barker questions how we inhabit notions of healing.
