Special Art & Architecture Event – All Are Welcome!
Please join us this Friday, March 15, 2024, from 11:30 AM – 12:30. PM in ART Room 158 to hear from Dr. Nicole Porter, Chair Division of Multi-Disciplinary Design (MDD), College of Architecture and Planning, University of Utah.
Dr. Porter will present reflections and images from her newest book, Drawing, Well-being and the Exploration of Everyday Place: 228 Sketches of Clifton Street (Intellect, Bristol, UK 2024). Over 200 observational drawings created every day from the same window reveal life in an ordinary English street in extraordinary times. This visual record and accompanying prose are a unique meditation on place, nature, community, time, and mental well-being.
Dr. Nicole Porter is the author of over 40 publications and conference presentations delivered in 20 different countries. Dr. Porter is also internationally recognized for her pioneering work at the forefront of mind-body-environment relationships and well-being, synthesizing built environment design theory with mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs).
