In 2017, Kristen T. Woodward was able to witness a total solar eclipse in Knoxville, Tennessee, and was moved by the dramatic planetary display. She is looking forward to viewing another eclipse in her hometown of Webster, New York in April, as we will be in that exquisite path of totality. Woodward marvels at how science has allowed us to countdown the minutes while other events in our lives appear random and chaotic. The experience leaves one to ponder what is pre-ordained. By including images inspired by solar eclipse, her encaustic paintings intend to capture this conflict and visual tension between chaos and natural order.Woodward received her BFA in Printmaking from Syracuse University, and her MFA in Studio Art from Clemson University. Her zoomorphic paintings combine encaustic and print processes, and often utilize found collage materials. Woodward is a professor in the department of art and art history at Albright College, teaching drawing, painting, printmaking, and gender and the visual arts. Currently, she is collaborating with an environmental biologist to explore tropical ecosystems in Costa Rica. Woodward serves as is Resident Curator for the online site Artists2Artists.

Today's Events | Persson Hall, Auditorium
The historical geographies of the Caribbean situate the region at the center of the modern world. The region entered the European spatial imaginary as the Antilles, a geographical description for the island archipelago that was tied to the mythologized Antillia. The visualizing practices and religio-cultural vocabulary behind the naming of the region, reflects the broader logics of coloniality that would come to fundamentally remaking the Caribbean. What Europeans did in and to the Caribbean, its Indigenous people, and the people forced into new residence there, provides compelling reason to take racial imaginaries seriously.In this talk, the presenter will use the concept of racial ecologies to read the political ecologies of European world-building in the Caribbean. For all the social, environmental, and cultural violence invested in the creation and preservation of colonial racial ecologies, Caribbean peoples have sprouted rich ecologies that escape these plantationist landscaping. The talk considers some of these insurgent Caribbean ecologies and the alternative vision of Antillia that they grow toward. This discussion will suggest how an Antillean perspective places epistemological and methodological demands on Africana, Latin American Studies, and Environmental Studies.Guest Speaker Information Alex A. Moulton is an assistant professor in the Department of Geography and Environmental Science at Hunter College and faculty in the Ph.D. Program in Earth and Environmental Science at the Graduate Center, City University of New York. His research focuses on Black geographies and ecologies, socio-ecological justice, and political ecology of climate change.
