Anatomy of a Moment: Capturing Truth in Court and Medicine

April 25 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
$15
Abstract and documentary-style artworks explore themes of courtrooms and medical settings, featuring layered images, figures, and symbolic elements that reflect truth and observation.
Join Peter Millett, a Seattle-based sculptor and courtroom illustrator, and Dr. James Vargo, a Children’s Nebraska craniofacial surgeon and medical illustrator, for a compelling, unscripted conversation about the challenges of rendering truth under pressure and recording the human experience.
While one works in operating rooms and the other in high-stakes legal environments, both are tasked with translating fleeting, complex realities into images that inform, persuade, and endure. This program examines how artists capture and reconstruct critical moments, exploring the questions of accuracy, interpretation, and ethics that underlie every creative decision.
Anatomy of a Moment invites audiences to reconsider what it means to “document reality,” and how artists in medicine and law shape our understanding of truth in moments that cannot be replayed.
