  • Workshop 10:30 a.m. - 11:45 a.m. Art and science intersect with elin o’Hara slavick’s art that maps radioactive residuum and Dr. David Richardson’s epidemiological studies of radiation’s human impact. O’Hara slavick, who wrote “Bomb After Bomb: A Violent Cartography” and “After Hiroshima,” is an internationally exhibiting artist who captures the lingering effects of radiation with autoradiographs and creates contact prints of rubbings of trees and architecture exposed to atomic bombs in Hiroshima, Nagasaki and Fukushima. Richardson, an epidemiologist who has conducted studies of cancer among U.S. federal nuclear workers and Japanese survivors of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, is the lead writer on the United Nations Committee on Epidemiological Studies of Radiation and Cancer (UNSCEAR). The duo is visiting from UC Irvine, where o’Hara slavick was artist in residence at the College of Health Sciences for the past three years and Richardson is associate dean for research in public health and a professor of environmental and occupational health. In this dynamic presentation, the artist and scientist discuss how they align their practices within the past, present and future of our shared nuclear realities.
