In a few days, I will be leaving on a fantastic journey to climb the mountains of Peru in order to create new artworks about the topic of climate change in this region. I will travel with a team of climate scientists from the Byrd Polar Research Center of Ohio State University and their graduate student research assistants. I will attend a conference in Lima, where strategies of adapting to a world without glaciers will be discussed. Then I will participate in a class with the graduate students about the effects of climate change on the glaciers in Peru and the effects on the environment that the loss will likely bring about. Then I will accompany the researchers on trekking/camping expeditions to the glacier sites, glacier melt water streams and weather stations where they will conduct research. I am looking forward to this opportunity to make artwork of the glaciers and the research activities. I will be using some staging methods to create interpretive images. I will be posting photos from my trip on my fFcebook page and keeping in touch there and when I return I will send out a newsletter with some previews of my artworks. If you are not already on my mailing list, I encourage you to join! I invite you to contact me on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/ivana.george |

My Chimera Series was recently featured at the Fort Point Arts Community Gallery with photographs by Deborah Bright. We gave an artist talk at the reception on Jan. 26th which was well attended. The audience asked thought- provoking questions about my work after the talk, which I enjoyed very much! |
