SUMMARY:M.F.A. Exhibition for Environmental Art & Social Practice (EASP)—"Picking up Shells Amid a Tsunami"
DESCRIPTION:The culminating exhibition of the Environmental Art and Social Practice (EASP) M.F.A. program at UC Santa Cruz presents new projects—Picking up Shells Amid a Tsunami 쓰나미가 밀려오는데\, 조개나 줍고 있네—developed through concentrated inquiry over a two-year period and offers a window into the artists’ unique long-term research projects that expand beyond the gallery space.\n—\nFULL SCHEDULE OF EVENTS\n– Ongoing Exhibition: Thurs..\, April 2–Sat.\, May 2\, 2026\n– Opening Celebration: Thurs.\, April 2\, 5:00–7:00 p.m.\n– Artist Roundtable: Thurs.\, April 23\, 5:00–6:00 p.m.\n—\nADMISSION\n– FREE and open to the public\n– Gallery hours are Tues.–Sun.noon–5:00 p.m (closed Mondays)\n—\nPARKING\n– Lot 124 & 125 are the closest parking lots to the event.\n– Parking is by permit or ParkMobile.\n– Refer to TAPS for more parking information.\n—\nABOUT THE EXHIBITION \nNotes from the EASP cohort: \n“The phrase evokes a scene in which\, amid an approaching catastrophe\, someone appears to be idly picking up seashells. In South Korea\, it gained political currency during the 2017 presidential impeachment protests\, when feminist\, disability rights\, and animal rights groups were criticized for bringing their demands into the demonstrations. Their interventions were dismissed as distractions—acts of “picking up shells” at a moment when the sole priority was said to be the president’s removal. \n“We choose to pick up shells nonetheless. Not because the crisis is small\, but because the shells matter. They are the body of the future\, what accumulates slowly\, what endures. One day\, shells become mountains\, and mountains become home. To pick up shells is not to turn away from urgency\, but to insist on a future beyond it. \n“This exhibition comes together through an insistence on the opposite premise: that picking up shells while disaster is at our doorstep is not a distraction\, but a necessity. What gets dismissed as marginal\, secondary\, a mere luxury\, or mistimed\, is precisely where social and political life becomes livable and where dreams\, desire and the imagination open lines of flight towards other worlds. \n“Waves can level buildings once on the shore\, dragging and revealing the damage as they recede. Rather than turning away from the storm\, we acknowledge the multilayered and epistemic devastation caused by centuries of colonial\, patriarchal\, racist violence upon people\, earth and more than human life. We witness the ongoing bifurcation of human and nature that is sedimented into our lives\, languages and social\, material\, infrastructures. \n“The act of bending down to gather shells\, ردم\,  fragments\, sounds\, 뼈\, blue bottles\, grotta\, relationships\, bodies\, cries—composes a score that moves towards forms of care through minor gestures\, embodiment\, ritual\, ofrendas\, listening and beholding.  Mundane and everyday poetics do not negate the scale of devastation and loss\, nor do they refuse engagement. Rather\, they bear witness. They reveal pathways towards endurance\, negotiation\, memory and imagination beyond colonial catastrophe. In this sense\, the exhibition reframes the tsunami not as a singular event or metaphor\, but an invitation us to behold\, actively look\, to sit within the textures of tectonic plates and energy flows\, at the conjuncture where plates meet\, in the flow of energy through tempo\, liquid\, movement\, land\, sound\, ecotone. \n“The wave does not demand one unified response. It forms part of a condition\, a form of everyday accretion\, a movement in and out of different temporalities. Picking up shells while the tsunami unfolds\, amid the tsunami\, alongside the water’s ebbs and flows\, calls us to pay attention to overlooked lives\, stories\, bodies\, memories\, flows and relations\, to transform materials so that they become reconstituted and are able to hold new and ongoing narratives that refuse to remain silent.”

SUMMARY:Flow and Friction Symposium: Media Practices Across Global Asias
DESCRIPTION:“Media Practices Across Global Asias\,” a  graduate-student research cluster working across the History of Art and Visual Culture and Film and Digital Media departments\, hosts their first symposium titled “Flow and Friction.” The day-long symposium is comprised of four panels with presenters from UC Santa Cruz and universities further afield in the U.S. and abroad. Three of the panels are focused on papers\, while the fourth is focused on practice as research\, with a screening of three short video works followed by Q&A. Professor Lisa Nakamura will visit from the University of Michigan\, where she is the Gwendolyn Calvert Baker Collegiate Professor in the Department of American Cultures\, as keynote speaker for the event. Each of the symposium presentations takes up the notion of flow and friction in response to the research cluster’s open call inviting inquiries in media studies and audiovisual culture in the context of Global Asias. Global Asias offer an expansive model to consider the imaginary or symbolic Asia as a series of diasporic interpolations constituted by Asian\, non-Asian\, and indigenous peoples and cultures. It demonstrates that worlds are not singular\, much like media and its practices\, and are contingent upon the labor and bodies that engage and disengage with them.\n—\nADMISSION\n– Attend in person at the Cowell Conference Room at UC Santa Cruz.\n– FREE and open to Arts Division staff & faculty\, Arts Division students\, and their invited guests.\n– Registration recommended here.\n—\nPARKING\n– Closest lots to the event are Lots 107\, 108\, 109 and 110.\n– All lots require an A permit which can be purchased via UCSC TAPS.\n– ParkMobile can be found at Lot 107 and 109.\n– Additional parking can be found in Lot 111 or Lot 111B or East Remote Lot 104.\n– Visitors with DMV placards or plates may park for free in DMV spaces\, Medical spaces\, or ParkMobile spaces without additional payment\, or in timed zones for longer than the posted time.\n– More information provided by UCSC Transportation & Parking Services (TAPS)\n—\nThis program is open to all UC Santa Cruz affiliates consistent with state and federal law. \n
