The climate we live in and experience through our journeys, observations and human connections with the natural world is ever transforming.
Artworks created in a variety of media by 15 diverse visual artists have been selected for exhibition. In addition to a shared connection to Wisconsin, each artist has also lived and worked in various parts of the world such as Canada, Southeast Asia, Mexico and other regions of the United States. This includes the vision of indigenous artists and their relationship to the land and the environment.
Up to 50 works in various mediums will be exhibited, allowing for many thematic interpretations and experience to surface. The public will have the opportunity to interact with the work as an observer and/or as an active participant through their involvement in the corresponding educational programming.
In content, the artwork explores the human relationship to the landscape and nature made evident through agricultural use, migration, habitat change, warming temperatures, wildfire, drought and heavy rains. The work will draw the viewer in to reflect upon not only the beauty of the natural world but also question our commitment to sustainability and to a reciprocal relationship which strengthens the exchange of resources and knowledge. The exhibit will engage and include multiple perspectives asking viewers to participate as better global citizens as well as offer them resilience and hope to strengthen their bond with the earth at this crucial point in history.
This Exhibition is curated by guest curator and artist Christine Buth Furness.
