Get matched →Truth and Madness: Interpreting (In)Sanity is a five-week exploration of culturally and neurologically diverse interpretations of and responses to madness. Through lectures, discussions, and opportunities for peer and instructor feedback on developing work, this cohort will examine how societies have defined, understood, and responded to experiences of madness across time and space. Drawing from these examples, artists will create artworks which collectively imagine “a mad future", concluding in a group showcase of readings, performances, and visual art presentations.
