SUMMARY:Sama Alshaibi: Silsila – Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Fine Art Photography, the Center for Environmental Justice, ( https://environmentaljustice.colostate.edu/ ) and the Hatton Gallery ( http://hatton.colostate.edu ) are excited to present Sama Alshaibi: Silsila as part of the Environmental Justice thru the Arts Exhibition series.\nSilsila\nArabic for ‘chain’ or ‘link’— is a multi-media project depicting Alshaibi’s seven-year cyclic journey through the significant deserts and endangered water sources of the Middle East and North African region. Through this body of work, the artist examines connections between different cultures that are under threat of displacement, recognizing shared global issues that need to be addressed.\nInspired by the great 14th-century Moroccan traveler Ibn Battuta, Alshaibi loosely followed his ancient paths through the present-day Middle East and North Africa, to the islands of the Maldives in the Indian Ocean, a nation slated to be the first to “disappear” by rising tides, and onto Hawaii in the Pacific Ocean, another island on the brink of extinction with. Alshaibi establishes that this recognition of geological interconnectedness and human interdependence is essential to addressing environmental issues. According to the artist, the story of water and desert is an enduring paradox and starting point for broader and philosophical readings that place mystical and historical importance on the natural world and point to our uncertain ecological future.\nEnvironmental Justice thru the Arts Series\nThe Clara Hatton Gallery ( http://hatton.colostate.edu ), in partnership with the Center for Fine Art Photography ( https://c4fap.org/ ), and the Center for Environmental Justice at CSU ( https://environmentaljustice.colostate.edu/ ) strives to engage the Northern Colorado community on issues around environmental justice, equity, and diversity.\nThe goal of this project is to create a series of exhibitions under the umbrella of Environmental Justice Thru the Arts to highlight discrepancies in equity and diversity in relation to environmental issues. Every year, the Hatton Gallery will host a new exhibition on the issue, in conjunction with environmental artists and scholars, which will spotlight how climate change affects various groups of people, especially minorities and the underprivileged.\nClimate Change and Environmental Justice are issues that touch us all and affect all of our lives in a variety of ways. Combating climate change and its effects should be something we all strive for, but some are being left behind. Climate change has a more drastic impact on certain populations. This exhibition aims to showcase how we can address the inequities that climate change creates and how we can make a change.\nEvery edition of the series will cover a specific element of Environmental Justice: such as earth, water, wind, and fire.\nMore info can be found at: https://art.colostate.edu/events/silsila-by-sama-alshaibi/ ( https://art.colostate.edu/events/silsila-by-sama-alshaibi/ )\n
