Human-Nature

On view now

The layers depicting the human and the natural interactions demonstrate how people perceive, use, and impact the environment, spanning basic survival and economic needs as well as deep psychological, cultural, and systemic connections. Humans and nature share a deep bond, but it is unequal. Humans are entirely dependent on the natural world for their survival; however, the natural world as a whole does not require humans to persist. Nevertheless, human activities now influence the health and vitality of natural ecosystems. The exhibition Human-Nature brings together various movements, sounds, compositions, and explorations of synthetic and organic materials, providing multiple ways to engage with an imaginative world of relationships. The exhibition features diverse creative practices that connect inner perceptions with external environments.
