Nigerian American artist and poet Precious Okoyomon will discuss their work, on view in the Johnson Museum exhibition The Sky Measures Little, with special guests Associate Professor Stacey Langwick and Professor Antonio DiTommaso. The exhibition was inspired in part by Okoyomon’s extended research and teaching engagements with Cornell students, faculty, and staff as the Museum’s first Migrations Visiting Artist in 2022, and this conversation will bring together topics related to ecosystems, critical plant studies, and the multiple paths of knowledge creation to generate a stimulating transdisciplinary dialogue.

The conversation will begin at 5:30PM. Click here to join the webinar (Passcode 537323).

In-person visitors are invited to a tea service and open exhibition exploration beginning at 4PM. A reception will follow the conversation.

This program and exhibition were developed in conjunction with the Migrations Global Grand Challenge, part of Global Cornell, with support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation’s Just Futures Initiative.
