SVA Continuing Ed / Art & Activism - Our House: Claiming 'Home' through Art and Design
SVA Continuing Ed / Art & Activism 2021 Our House: Claiming 'Home' through Art and Design Wednesday, November 3 at 6 pm SVA Theatre and Livestream View Animating the Climate Crisis students film here. https://vimeo.com/641950214 As we celebrate the 5th anniversary of Art & Activism the concept of home and all its definitions are explored. What does it mean to be at home in our bodies, our communities, and our world as we navigate through these perilous times? At this year’s Art & Activism titled “Our House: Claiming 'Home' through Art and Design” numerous artists across various disciplines convey their visions reflecting the issues society faces. We spent the evening hearing from artists who addressed how fallow buildings could be re-purposed for creatives in desperate need of affordable living spaces, an accomplished nonprofit leader creating space through community design, an artist-activist working with indigenous communities to save the Amazon utilizing performance art, and high school students expressing themselves about the ever-present threat of climate change through the art of animation. It was a fascinating evening of presentation and discussion.
