The Visual Arts Team is excited to present Decolonizing Tarot, an exhibit by Cathleen Abalos. Find the Visual Arts Team on Instagram @uovisualarts or Facebook @visualartsteam, where you can see exhibition updates and video artist talks for each show!
Show runs September 24 through October 29 in the EMU Aperture gallery.
The show features artwork from Decolonized Tarot, “a new independent tarot deck that centers Filipino culture while celebrating all others,” created by Maritess Zurbano and Cathleen Abalos. Check out @decolonizedtarot on Instagram or check out their website decolonizedtarot.com!
Artist Statement:
The Decolonized Tarot is a tarot deck celebrating people from all walks of life, all colors, and all shapes and sizes. The images are rooted in Filipino mysticism and history, while also referencing other cultures. By creating this deck, my aim is to show people a reimagined, fantastical, world through each of the 78 tarot cards.
The artwork was created digitally, using the iPad Pro, Apple Pencil, and the art program Procreate. Since my art style tends to focus on lighting and color and how they depict emotions and affect environments, I tried to include as much of that in each card. Because there is so much meaning behind tarot cards, I made sure the artwork didn’t deter away from that. I also included a lot of indigenous and Filipino-inspired patterns to pay homage to my (and my co-creator partner, Maritess Zurbano’s) Filipino roots. We are both Filipino-American, so a lot of the time for this project was spent researching the various cultures of the Philippines that existed before the colonization of the Spanish. Since this deck is meant to celebrate all people, it is our intention to include of the world cultures besides the Philippines, as well as include people from the LGBTQ+ community, people of all body shapes and sizes, and include the imagination of the disabled community.

Show runs Sept 24 - Oct 29 in EMU Adell McMillan Gallery. Closing Reception October 28th at 6:00 PM. Refreshments provided!
Artist Statement:
My name is Cruz Godar, I’m a graduate student in the math department here at UO, and I spend some of my free time writing and polishing high-performance web applets for creating fractals and related objects. Math is often portrayed as obscure and detached — often for good reason — and images like these help give it a better face. Despite originating from disparate areas, these fractals all share an intrinsic beauty that anyone can appreciate, mathematician or not.
These images, as well as others, can be viewed as interactive applets at cruzgodar.com.

The HIV Alliance, Collegiate Recovery Center, and SAPE are hosting a special training for all students. Naloxone is an opioid antagonist that has the ability to reverse an opioid overdose. Anyone participating this event will learn about the resources the HIV Alliance provides, how to recognize an opiod overdose, and how to administer Naloxone.
HIV Alliance will be on campus to host a Naloxone Training for University of Oregon students. The training will take place from 6:00-7:00pm in EMU Swindells and is free of charge. The purpose of the training is to educate students on HIV Alliances’ many resources, what an opioid overdose may look like, teach what Naloxone is and how to administer it, and provide Naloxone kits as a resource. The training also emphasizes the importance of calling for help when interacting with a potential substance overdose. If you’re unsure what Naloxone is or need a refresher:
Naloxone is an opioid antagonist that has the ability to reverse an opioid overdose. While emergency personnel typically administer it, it is safe enough to be administered by laypeople.
Naloxone has no impact if opioids are not present in the body. Naloxone comes in 2 forms: Evzio (an injection similar to an epipen) and Narcan (a nasal spray).

Prevention and intervention rely on collaboration, but often those who work in this field of work find themselves in silos. One gap recognized was lack of connection among alcohol and other drug prevention, intervention, and recovery staff across the state of Oregon's institutions of higher education.
With support from Oregon Health Authority and leadership from the University of Oregon, the Oregon Prevention Coalition was formed.
Since its first meeting in the summer of 2020, the coalition has created a space for staff to build relationships, receive training, and garner statewide collaboration. The coalition meets on the first Tuesday of each month and averages one training each quarter.
Initially focused on public, four-year institutions, as of winter 2021 the coalition is expanding to community colleges. Eventually, the coalition will encompass the state’s private colleges and universities.

Hot Buttered Rum, a souped-up, left-coast string band, is the brainchild of five uniquely gifted musicians who weave their love of bluegrass, folk, jazz and soul into a riveting strain of Americana. String bass and five-alarm fiddle merge with guitar, banjo, mandolin and drums to frame the voices of its two contrasting writers, fueling a dance party with roots in Appalachia and its branches in California. It’s a sound that’s as tough to describe as it is easy to love.
