A pediatric orthopedic surgeon turned award-winning photographer, Lisa Miller beguiles the viewer with images that are simultaneously timeless and timeworn. Her photos - roses past their prime, tangerines positioned in front of trees, gas pipes in close up - are familiar yet otherworldly thanks to the precision of her compositions and technique. Date | Friday, March 11, 2022 Location | Once Upon A Frame Miller counts Rembrandt, Sebastião Salgado, and Sam Abell among her influences, but she is in especially rapt conversation with 17th-century Dutch and Spanish still life artists: “They make painted objects look realistic and I make photographed objects look like paintings.” Bring the kids and pets, enjoy wine and cheese, and take in Miller’s gorgeous photographs, framed by Once Upon A Frame for her solo show.

CARTA public symposia typically begin by emphasizing that the primary goal of Anthropogeny is to explore and understand where we humans came from, and how we got here. Consequently, we usually limit discussion of current-day implications, and the question of where we are going as a species. This time we will focus on the long and short-term impact of humans on the planet that we inhabit, and the consequences for the future of our species. This also gives us the opportunity to celebrate the memory of the late Paul Crutzen, who coined the term “Anthropocene”. Date | Saturday, March 5, 2022 at 10am Location | Virtual link Register here! It is relevant to ask how a single species evolved the capacity to completely alter the surface of an entire planet and dominate its governing environmental and ecological processes. This symposium will bring together experts regarding human impact on the planet and also address the current and future implications for our species. Presented by The Center for Academic Research and Training in Anthropogeny (CARTA), an UC San Diego ORU.
