dis/comfort in the North

dis/comfort in the North exhibition at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks is on view.  I have a piece being exhibited from a series of work created at an artist residency in Iceland that focuses on glacier retreat in the North.   Catalogue

Through a call for submissions and by invitation, dis/comfort asks how Northern identity, colonialism, and climate change can be imagined and interpreted through layers of comfort and discomfort. Artists share encounters and intimacies with the North through video, photography, carving, embroidery, an interactive card game, a protest poem, and two-dimensional works printed on photo transparencies. A range of experiences and stories unfold, asking viewers to consider their own comfort and reflect on the broader contexts of how dis/comfort shapes living in and visiting the North.
