Gallery Talk: Cultures of Medicine and the Human Body

Several of Huang’s works reference practices of traditional Chinese medicine and concepts such as ch’i, the energy that fl ows through all existing beings; yin and yang; and the body as a microcosm for the cosmic universe as expressed through various symbols and materials. Join Chinese medical practitioner Chris Hafner and Carolyn Torkelson, MD, MS, for a discussion about perceptions of healing from different cultural perspectives.

Chris Hafner and Carol Torkelson, MD, MS are both faculty at the Center for Spirituality and Healing at the University of Minnesota.
