About The Upcoming Exhibit: "A Study In Artivism"
Our artists have been working for months to create an interactive, online art gallery to feature community-engaged climate artwork. Each artist uses their own medium to illustrate important topics in climate and engage with their communities.
Join us between November 11th-15th.
The Featured Artists
Mira Musank is a textile upcycling artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Her creative garments are inspired by runway experiences from her fashion blogging days. Mira’s medium is sewing, weaving, and hand embroidery. fafafoom.com | @miramusank
Klara Maisch documents landscape change in oil paintings created on location. She travels to remote regions of Alaska to paint throughout the seasons. Scientific research and direct experiences with the physical forces that shape a landscape inform the visual dynamics in her work. klaramaisch.com
David Solnit is an arts organizer, sign painter, printmaker, puppeteer, and carpenter who lives and works in Northern California. His artwork – signs, banners, flags, puppetry, and street murals created in collaboration with social change activists and artists – has been exhibited in strikes, blockades, occupations, sit-ins, and mass marches.
Minori Murata is an art director and visual artist born in 1992 and based in Tokyo, Japan. Murata’s practice is based on compositing, processing, and collaging. She originates high-calorie visual expressions and motion graphics videos with a large amount of information. minorimurata.wiki
Rose McAdoo is a visual artist using cake as her medium for raising awareness around global issues. Her unique edible art centers around human stories and the environment, leading her to make cakes with remote populations in some of the world’s most extreme environments. rosemcadoo.com
