Chris Drury and Lynn Fenstermaker: Whirlwinds and Black Holes: Art(work) and Science in Extreme Environments
The impulse to explore the world’s most extreme environments has long been a scientific and creative pursuit. This session brings together artists and scientists who have spent significant time working in extreme desert and polar regions. Lita Albuquerque joins Chris Drury, who recently completed an artist residency in the Antarctic with the British
Antarctic Survey, to discuss the challenges of making work in unfamiliar territory. Desert Research Institute scientist Lynn Fenstermaker offers insight into her recent collaboration with Drury at the Nevada Test Site, her research on deserts, aerial patterning, and climate
change, and the potential for continued collaboration between artists and scientists.
