Please join us for an evening of conversation centered around community and sustainability with fourteen artists and scientists. Extension of Community: what it means to be sustainable in a digital world explores the intersection of science, technology and art, asking questions such as; How have our technological and digital developments helped and harmed us? How can we be more digitally sustainable? And how can technology be harnessed to help heal the planet? All the artists reflect on community and sustainability within their practice and question the impacts of technologies on the environment.
This exhibit features work by an array of artists and researchers based here in Atlanta: Jeremy Bolen, Juan-Pablo Correa-Baena, Jordan Graves, Adira Griffin, Inspired Action Design (Collaborators: Joel Krieger, Matt Lewis, Hunter Spence and Mauricio Talero) Sylvia Janicki, Amy Landesberg, Pam Longobardi, Nassim Parvin, Stuart Romm, and Hudson Treu.
