Encounters | Mirror Image

Friday 11th November 2011, 6 for 6.30pm.
Inspace, 1 Crichton Street, Edinburgh EH8 9AB

At this Encounter we explore how symmetry surrounds and attracts us: from its presence in art, to the structure of body and brain. Can it influence our lives?

John Starr is a Professor of Ageing at the University of Edinburgh interested in body and brain symmetry during development and how this may impact on later health.

Gavin Evans is recognised for his uncompromising take on photography. His images are brutally direct, visceral in their beauty and underpinned by humour.
