This compelling exhibition explore the relationship between nature and humanity, capturing the environmental impacts of human resources. It is not just about climate change, but also a humanitarian issue. Artists present work that first appears beautiful but, ultimately, reveals an ugly truth underneath of damage, transmutation and the decomposed. This exhibit offers a fresh perspective on critical environmental issues and exemplifies our capacity to understand, adapt and motivate in the face of danger.
Scientific data is essential but thus far insufficient in motivating a concerted response to the climate crisis by our national leaders. What insights can other disciplines such as the visual arts and humanities provide to advance public understanding and motivate effective action in response to important scientific knowledge?
Artists: J. Henry Fair, David Maisel, Alison Moritsugu, Richard Parrish, and Jill Pelto.
