Abstract:
The entire globe is experiencing a devastating loss of species and ancient cultures that is tied to humankind’s collective growth and technological march forward. The strength of the visual arts lies both in its potential to communicate across cultures and in the ability of objects to physically illustrate and theoretically illuminate often hidden processes, connections and costs.
