Broken Time Machines: Discussing the Work of Daisy Patton
2:30pm-4pm
Monday, February 7, 2022
Virtual Event
Free and Open to the Public
Daisy Patton’s colorfully resuscitated photographs serve as a rich source for dialogue around collapsing time and space in the lens of chronic illness and crip time, memory and relationships, marginalized histories, and the renewal and reimagining of loss. This panel, co-hosted by the Davis Museum with the curatorial initiative Holding Space Archive, celebrates the recent publication of Broken Time Machines, an anthology of writings about Patton’s work by Minerva Press. In this special event, Dr. Carrie Cushman, former Linda Wyatt Gruber '66 Curatorial Fellow in Photography at the Davis Museum, will join Rachel da Silveira Gorman, Associate Professor of Critical Disability Studies at York University; Megan Bent, alternative process photographer of disability culture and identity; Zoey Hart, interdisciplinary artist and director of the Art Beyond Sight residency program; and Moira Williams, indigenous disabled artist, organizer, and culture activist; to consider personal histories, decay, and renewal/reenvisioning in photography, through the lens of contemporary criticism and collective care, centering the work of Patton as conversational fount.
