Christina Seely: DISSONANCE and DISTURBANCE

On view Oct. 8, 2021 — Sept. 5, 2022

Christina Seely’s multidisciplinary practice stretches into the fields of art, science, design, installation and sound, culminating in a range of visual and collaborative translations. Her work addresses complexities of both built and natural global systems in order to highlight increasingly tenuous relationships between humans and the planet.

The projects presented here, DISSONANCE and DISTURBANCE, draw on Seely’s fieldwork in Greenland, Alaska, and Panama. They investigate how the proliferation of global trade networks and the worsening climate crisis are impacting the environment.

Seely says, “At a moment when we are increasingly experiencing reality and the natural world indirectly, these projects ask us to sense what feels right or natural through our full kinesphere, to renew the body as the site or conduit for information registration and knowledge gathering.”
