INT 711 - Art and Ecology: Global South

2 credit(s)
The global environmental crisis influences contemporary cultural production on multiple levels. Socially engaged artists and designers in the 21st century require an understanding of the fundamentals of ecology and climate change so that they may make environmentally appropriate decisions concerning materials and production, platforms for distribution, and approaches to addressing ecology as artists and citizens. This course presents the many ways artists and designers investigate and represent current ecological conditions. Using a hands-on workshop format, the course employs experiential learning within the natural environment of the Global South to foster new levels of awareness and engagement.
