The Artistic Vision: Aesthetic or Affliction? With Yari J. Mena

Hello friends! I’m speaking with the Chit Chat Club at the Center for Puppetry Arts on Thursday November 20! Those who know me, know I have major astigmatism (I literally cannot see without my glasses / contacts). Those who really know me, know my dad is experiencing diabetic retinopathy, a complication of diabetes that affects the eyes and can obscure vision. I explore how artistic style was affected by age and optical conditions, including some strategies artists used to continue their work. But don’t just come for me! There will be other individuals giving talks on interesting topics too! I hope to see you there! :)
