Take a pause and look deeply at a work of art, perhaps for the first time ever.

José Garza, Museum Academic Programs Coordinator, will guide particpants through exercises to experience artwork by Andrea Bowers from the Eco Grief Extinction series. Bowers's art amplifies causes ranging from human rights advocacy to environmental protection. Activist chants reverberate through her creations, manifesting as vibrant, neon-lit slogans; expansive black marker drawings on collaged cardboard, inspired by vintage agitprop; and small, detailed illustrations of individual demonstrators amidst a larger crowd, inviting viewers to recognize the unique voices within collective movements.

Part of WashU Mindfulness Week: September 24–27, 2024.
