As part of The Greene Space’s Wanderlust Wednesdays series, performance artist Marisa Morán Jahn (aka Aphrodite) and special guests whose work depends on copper answers your questions about relationships, betrayals, and revelations (bodily or terrestrial), and discuss the importance of copper throughout history.
You’ll hear from experts like Sara Dahmen, award-winning writer and coppersmith, Dave Maiullo, educator and physicist, and Chikako Takeshita, Professor of Gender & Sexuality studies, and examine how copper has been used in reproductive technology for oh, at least the past few millennia. You just might find yourself smitten with this mineral’s “electrowinning” superpowers that humans have harnessed for the past 10,000 years — so bring your copper IUD.
