Happening today: Environmental artist Eliza Evans to perform ‘Time Machine’ on campus
(Posted April 22, 2021)
Environmental artist Eliza Evans will be on campus from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. today to perform a reiteration of her piece Time Machine, a duration and interactive work where she will spend several hours “living” in a mass-produced greenhouse on the lawn of the Arts Quad.
The performance is a collaboration between Austin Peay State University’s art and design and nursing programs. Nursing students from Dr. Kim French’s community health nursing class will monitor, record and display Evans’ vitals during the performance, giving visitors a visualization of the toll that increasing global temperatures have on the human body.
The event, which is free and open to the public, is sponsored by the Department of Art + Design with support from The Center of Excellence for the Creative Arts.
