CRAFT TALK
Valeria Luiselli shares insights into her myriad approaches to writing
during this virtual discussion with a group of students, faculty, and staff in
the Department of English.

Special thanks to the Visiting Writers Series of the Department of English
and Creative Writing program, Erika Meitner, Veronica Montes, Carmen
Giménez Smith, and Matthew Volmer

Go Deeper
In an interview with the Associated Press, Valeria Luiselli illustrated what
motivated her to write the extended essay Tell Me How It Ends and
subsequent novel Lost Children Archive:

      “I started asking myself how [the migrant] children of this
      generation were going to eventually tell this story, what were
      they going to say about this reality—that on one hand was
      very real but on the other seemingly implausible—about
      thousands of children in a migratory limbo.”

In both works, what are the main issues that immigrant families are
facing? How do you imagine that present-day youth will describe the
story of the current moment to the next generation?

UNBEARABLE BEAUTY

Through Saturday, April 24
All galleries

Expansive in theme and panoramic in scope, this exhibition presents
works of art that are visually engaging, impactful, and even beautiful,
while conveying the difficult reality that the consequences of human
activity have imperiled the Earth. Featuring large-scale photographic
works by three nationally and internationally recognized artists, a stunning
video installation of one of the largest arctic glacier calving incidents to
date, and an arresting soundscape of birdsongs of species that no longer
exist, the exhibition articulates in striking, aesthetic terms the damage
inflicted on our ecosystems by human activity. This exhibition presents a
visual journey, poignantly bringing into focus a number of these critical
ecological issues, the enormity of which are difficult for most of us to
grasp or fully comprehend.

Land Acknowledgement
The Moss Center acknowledges the Tutelo and Monacan people, who
are the traditional custodians of the land on which we work and live,
and recognizes their continuing connection to the land, water, and air
that Virginia Tech consumes. We pay respect to the Tutelo and Monacan
Nations, and to their elders past, present, and emerging.

We also acknowledge the university’s historical ties to the indentured
and enslaved whose labors built this institution. We pay respect to these
people for their contributions to Virginia Tech.

As you engage with one another and the arts we present, we invite you to
reflect on the history of this space and its possibilities for reconciliation,
truth, and humanity. In the spirit of Ut Prosim, let this acknowledgment be
but a single step in the Moss Arts Center’s commitment to these values.
Support the Moss Arts Center as we continue
setting the stage for the arts in our community.
Our community needs the arts to lift us up and bring us together,
and artists need the support of arts organizations and audiences
to keep their work alive and relevant. Your continued support of
the Moss Arts Center is critical.

Your gift of any level makes a difference.
