Pippin Frisbie-Calder, LSU School of Veterinary Medicine's 2025 artist-in-residence, will present a public exhibition and talk on November 10, 2025, at the LSU Vet Med Library. During her August residency, she engaged with clinicians, researchers, and the hospital environment to create original artworks inspired by veterinary science, using printmaking, woodcutting, and large-scale installations that explore climate change, species extinction, and environmental stewardship.
This event matters because LSU Vet Med's Artist-in-Residence Program is the first of its kind at a U.S. veterinary school, bridging art and science to foster interdisciplinary dialogue. Frisbie-Calder's work embodies the One Health philosophy, connecting human, animal, and environmental health, and her residency demonstrates how artistic practice can complement scientific rigor and raise awareness about ecological issues.
