Join us for another Confabulations event which will be this time a panel formed around the artwork of Kathy High, a key case study from the Stomach Ache project.
Confabulations event series IMH
How do people respond to complex gut issues that are poorly served by clinical medicine?
Curator Vanessa Bartlett, artists Kathy High, and Lindsay Kelley explore creative collaborations with guts as new ways of understanding human-gut relations across clinical, domestic and artistic spaces. Speakers will take High’s practice as a starting point for exploring wider themes of the Stomach Ache project. High will introduce her expansive body of work You Are My Future, which begins with the provocation: is our gut a ‘hackable space?’ Kelley will share material from her forthcoming book After Eating: Metabolising the Arts (MIT Press 2023),which contextualises High’s work within the wider field of the metabolic arts.
The panel will include a response from Claire Hooker, Associate Professor in Health and Medical Humanities at University of Sydney.
