Art for the Environment showcases new work by 6 artists who have recently participated in University of the Arts London's international AER residency programme
About
Art for the Environment. curated by Camilla Palestra. showcases work by some of the most exciting artists emerging today who are drawing attention to our fragile planet. Above all, each one is concentrating on environmental sustainability and biodiversity. However, issues to do with colonial violence, social justice, and their interconnections also comes into their work. Whatever their primary focus, each artist is offering new imaginative relational perspectives between different forms of life.
The exhibition is a collaboration with the AER Art for the Environment international residency programme, launched at the University of the Arts London by Prof Lucy Orta in 2015. GroundWork Gallery has been involved with this programme for 3 years, hosting one artist each summer. It is among a total of 19 host organisations providing a range of immersive experiences for artists and postgraduate students. Each one is working across disciplines, to research and develop creative projects that interrogate concerns that define the 21st century.
