Arts/Entertainment

Recent and new collaborative works in drawing, printmaking, photography, and video by Angela Bartram and Lee Deigaard


The animal and being animal is a proposition and position that invites observational and critical debate. To observe the non-human animal is too often tense and politicized; to take on an understated what-it-is-to-be-animal is a sensitized and sensitive means to understand differing perspectives. Artists Lee Deigaard (USA) and Angela Bartram (UK) critically approach the animal as the animal. Using diverse methods and materials and curious to potentialities, they explore working as humans from an animal-centric perspective. They bring sensitivities to their handling of the animal as both artistic subject and collaborator, of behaving as animal, in order to observe and engage with empathy and openness to the unexpected, to animal insight and revelation. Iterative long term projects in drawing and printmaking foreground proximity and proprioceptive, nearly devotional studio and caretaking practices centering on respiration and companionate movement within a global pandemic. This exhibition explores the socialized and familiar in close observation, directly and indirectly, in their individual yet companion practices and additionally features the artists in conversation and active collaboration on site in the gallery.

Mindful Movement | Yin Yoga

Recreation

FREE REGISTRATION: https://bit.ly/mindfulnessandmeditationweekly

Yin yoga is a slow-paced, passive type of yoga that incorporates long holds and stretching designed for deep contemplation and mind-body awareness. Yin yoga promotes sensory awakening that melts away tension and stress, and is known to release repressed or stored emotions. A tried and true technique to experience fascia and connective tissue release, Yin yoga is also an excellent practice for beginners because it offers plenty of time to uncover the unique benefits of individual poses without worrying about tricky transitions.

Practicing self care through mindfulness and meditation can help you relax and focus on what is most important - your overall wellness. This is a weekly, online wellness series hosted by the Utah State University Office of Health Equity and Community Engagement and Tribal & Rural Opioid Initiative Resource Center.

Re-Launching the Career Design Center

Workshop/Training

Over the past year, the Career Design Center, formerly Career Services, has been very busy reimagining and redesigning career education at Utah State University. Based on national trends, research, data, feedback from the Utah State University (USU) community, and the workforce, changes were made to scale the Career Design Center's ability to reach all USU students. Career education is all of our responsibility - the future of the Career Design Center is to be a presence that is strategically integrated into the student academic experience, not just a brick-and-mortar location. Our goal is to collaborate with more and more faculty so we can more intentionally help students be a learner, but also prepare for their careers and successfully transition into the workforce. Helping students gain experience through opportunities such as internships gives students a stronger advantage in the job market upon graduation. The Career Design Center can provide more strategic career education to help students navigate the ever-changing workforce needs.
