FEEDING the anxiety

I’m notoriously an emotional eater.  I find comfort in food, and I know it is a slippery slope. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve quit trying to fight the desire to eat for comfort and have just tried to make better “comfortable” choices.  Politics being what they are in the U.S. would understandably drive anyone to drink, but I have resorted to guava.  Guava is my tropical fruit therapy, and then, of course, there’s art.  This next Call wants your political art.  Take a look…

Learn more about the FL3THC3R exhibit from the ETSU Reece Museum!hot POTATO

Food is political; I repeat it regularly.  Whether it is the origin of food, the growing method, the harvesting practice or the politics of the person preparing it.  How you spend your money affects both the availability of the variety, the acceptability of the practices & the relative financial success of the corresponding farmers, vendors & restaurants.  If you don’t support a food’s associated politics, don’t lend it your financial support –regardless of how good it tastes.  Food is political.  It is a hot potato, and it matters because WHAT WE EAT MATTERS.  This next Call is also political.  This is an opportunity to make space for matters to you.  Take a look…

Popcorn is the nightly snack of choice at my home, but lately it has taken on a more symbolic nature.  The current election climate has left me feeling disconnected from the political process –as though my voice and vote don’t count.  It feels like I’m watching a movie, eating popcorn and yelling at the innocent girl to warn her that the bad guy looms just around the next corner.  This next Call strives to connect people to the political and social issues that comprises contemporary culture.  Take a look…

His complexly layered work connects issues of printmaking and art history with social concerns of public health, human rights abuse and responses to HIV/AIDS, death, sexuality and the body.  Creating powerful historical records of experience with patients, he changes the ordinary role of a doctor into an artist inspired by healing, fusing the space between art and medicine.  Before his retirement, he was clinical associate professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences and member of the Institute for Medical Humanities, The University of Texas Medical Branch, specializing in issues related to HIV/AIDS.  In addition to being the subject of numerous gallery exhibitions, Avery’s work is found in many prestigious permanent collections.
