Date: Wednesday, November 17, 2021. 10:00 AM. Location: Zoom Webinar How can art create ecological legibility and give us an understanding of the natural world in our backyards, parks and urban spaces? Art can create a new modality for comprehending nature— different from science, which has been the traditional translator of nature. This new take on ecology can be more experiential and show change over time. Art has the power to capture nature at all its scales: from the microscopic diatom to the vast weather patterns and to invite people to see and sense and learn about the ways they are connected to the natural world. https://www.stacylevy.com/ Join us for an engaging talk from Stacy Levy, in celebration of GISDay@Stanford. Stacy will discuss the motivation and process for creating her architectural-scale sculptural geographic installations & "physicalizations" of spatial information and dynamics.
