About this Event
Our Spring 2022 Studio & Research resident duo Goldin+Senneby’s talk departs with zoologist Elie Metchnikoff piercing a citrus thorn into a starfish larva in 1882. This act pushed the legal concept of immunity into biology and introduced a violent new metaphor for imagining how living organisms coexist in this world. Goldin+Senneby revisit this moment from the perspective of living with an autoimmune condition.
Goldin+Senneby are Stockholm-based and have been working jointly since 2004. This presentation is part of our For Your Reference series, in which our residents share an important reference--whether a book, a film, person, plant, concept, or object--that propels their current mode of thinking and feeling.
This talk is co-presented with Triple Canopy. It is free and open to the public, but prior registration via this Eventbrite is recommended.
