Brief Curatorial Statement: Art & Science 

In this project Folta is addressing the melting glacier topic due to global warming as an emergency call. The consequences of melting glaciers will displace communities due to rising sea levels. The alteration of habitats such as coral reefs and grasslands could lead to the extinction of many species of flora and fauna, making them endangered or vulnerable species in the future. Crop failures will jeopardize our food supply and other catastrophes, such as outbreaks of infectious diseases, will become more frequent due to increased levels of air pollution.

Folta’s project is made possible by a Private Donor.
Angela Losada-Swafford’s lecture is sponsored by Midway Artist Studios.
