WPA is thrilled to announce Lorenzo Piero Holder III and Dr. Vicenzio Holder-Perkins, organizing artists of One Stroke at a Time, will premiere a short experimental documentary called Drawn Together–Protocols for a Shared Body that gives viewers an up close look at their collaborative creative practice and a unique glimpse into their relationship as uncle and nephew—a psychiatrist and an artist—and the way art functions as a practice of caregiving between them. A discussion with the artists and WPA’s Director, Travis Chamberlain, will follow.

Program Agenda:

• 25-minute art film screening featuring the collaborative work of uncle and nephew
• 15-minute keynote address responding to the film and its broader implications
• 20-minute community dialogue
• 15 min open Q&A

This event invites artists, healthcare practitioners, caregivers, and community members to engage in an important dialogue about how creative collaboration can reshape understandings of rehabilitation, recovery, and collective care.
