Prof. Alzate explores ways of “entering the body” as something that can be mapped, in connection to place: family spaces, hospitals, the space where we migrated from, and larger social spaces. She will describe the affordances of body maps to explore the body as storage of trauma, maps as narratives, and pushes for communal aesthetics in graphic design. Join us for lunch, learning, and conversation!
