‘Impetus! Choice Points → Change’

is an activist exhibition addressing the precarity and promise of our relationship to the environment. The show highlights the work of eco conscious artists and activists centering themes of indigenous resistance and water is life, climate + consumption, policies + pollution, sea level + sustainability. The work is varied, featuring photography, prints, conceptual installations, infographics, and virtual reality other artforms.

Artists include: Paige Dansinger, Rejin Leys, Neal McCormick, Karina Puente, Nathan Kensinger, and Michael Premo.

Join us for art, community and conversation on Thursday, September 27 @ 6-8pm at the exhibit opening in the Rotunda Gallery held in the Williamsburg Gallery.

 

Come back out on Saturday, September 29 11am-1pm for an Urban Edibles Walking Tour with Paige Dansinger. As we walk thru Williamsburg, we will look at the surrounding edible nature the we overlook everyday. Learn what plants you may include in your salads, stir-fries, and culinary delights — as well as, identify plants you would use in emergency or for survival purposes. Understanding how to identify and use edible and medicinal plants that grow in our immediate environments, between sidewalk cracks, planted inboulevards and planters, near libraries, schools, parks and public spaces will empower people, break dependency on industrial agriculture, open dialogue about urban hunger, offer a new relationship with the flora in NYC, — and create the opportunity to be the most fascinating person at the next dinner party!
