HEAL Program Art & Medicine Event

Join us for a conversation with Artist Miranda Fae, Dr. Purush Rao, and Artist in Residence Ted Meyer.

Miranda Fae believes that art should be an individual exploration of thoughts and feelings that gently ties in societal and cultural issues. This body of work focuses on the ability to play, explore, and dive deeper while investigating the relationship between Cystic Fibrosis, art and health on a larger scale. The artist’s motivation is to create an intimate yet public conversation around art and illness, aiming to remove the stigma associated with being sick. Images and symbols from the medical field are recreated with a happier appearance using color and flowers, in hopes of generating new feelings associated with the imagery. “Living Proof” reflects the artist’s diverse personal experiences and exploration of materials such as wood, fabric, clay, plastic, plaster, and epoxy.
