Bugs & Beasts Before the Law Colloquium

Join us for the Bugs & Beasts Before the Law Colloquium. Inspired by the upcoming Bambitchell exhibition of the same name, participants consider the entangled issues of justice, personhood, and kinship. Leveraging the power of art to reframe what is familiar, the multi-month program imagines and explores possibilities for survival and liberation for those whose protections are limited or whose personhood is compromised, oppressed, or threatened within socio-legal systems.
