Jan. 14 – Mar. 3, 2022 A Ribbon of Quicksilver: Art & the Environment on the Kankakee River |
There is an alarming rise of sand and silt content being deposited from Indiana into the Illinois side of the Kankakee River. This is caused by Indiana’s manipulation of the natural path of the river. This dangerous condition is made worse by the consequences of climate change. Together, these grave realities are at times overwhelming and it can be difficult to know how to respond. Through artistic production including photography, mixed-media works, poetry, and prose, together with scientific field research, artists, scientists, and scholars come together to explore, define, and perhaps inspire. This interdisciplinary project seeks to re-imagine natural materials in fresh ways with the hope that viewers engage the world around them with renewed reverence and care. Lead Artists: Prof. Jon Seals, Prof. Scott Dombrowski. Lead Researchers: Dr. Randal Johnson with student researchers Brianna Munnich and Emily Zeck.
