Panel discussion: How the arts can change your life - decoding minds, emotions & desires
Join us at James Makin Gallery on Sunday 28 November 2.30-4.30 pm for an art and fiction discussion to celebrate the launch of The Rise of the Australian Neurohumanities (Routledge) by Jean-François Vernay.
As humans we are driven by our emotions and desires and hardly think twice about how our brain is influencing our choices on a daily basis. Visual arts and fiction allow us to negotiate our relationship with the world and ourselves, and enable us to take a peak inside our impenetrable brains.
Come and engage with an artist, a critic, a neuroscientist, a curator, and a creative writer to discuss feelings, yearning, ways of thinking, aesthetic representations, slices of life, matters of the heart and transparent minds.
Special guests:
Moderator Chris Ringrose, Creative Lives: Conversations with Contemporary South Asian Diasporic Writers (Columbia University Press)
James Makin Gallery Artist (TBC)
Critic Jean-François Vernay (Neurocognitive Interpretations of Australian Literature, Routledge Focus)
