Through an ongoing series of community conversations, artist and architect Suchi Reddy has been in dialog with students, faculty, staff, and townspeople throughout the 2024-2025 academic year to learn about the ways in which our encounters with reflection and misreflection in physical and digital spaces contribute to our experience of bias and belonging. A culmination of the year's conversations, Bias and Belonging poetically reframes the Colgate community's embodied experience of belonging in woven, textual and digital forms. Bias and Belonging is the latest iteration of Reddy's ongoing exploration into embodied states of being that reflect our individual and collective experience as we code switch and transform in evolving environments both digital and physical.Presented by the Art Department and the Christian A.

Dive into the startling world of fast fashion through this Vis Lab screening of The True Cost brought to Colgate's campus by University Museums. This conversation was inspired by two current exhibitions on display: Unraveled: Labor and Meaning Behind Weaving at the Longyear Museum of Anthropology and A Thought is a Thread at Picker Art Gallery.About the film: This is a story about clothing. It’s about the clothes we wear, the people who make them, and the impact the industry is having on our world. The price of clothing has been decreasing for decades, while the human and environmental costs have grown dramatically. The True Cost is a groundbreaking documentary film that pulls back the curtain on the untold story and asks us to consider, who really pays the price for our clothing?Inspired to take action after the screening?
