Resilience + Adaptation highlights the work of ten Middle Tennessee visual artists engaging with the complementary concepts of resilience—a perspective concerned with systemic change, capacity-building, and recovery—and adaptation—incremental and transformational actions that aid communities locally and globally in adjusting to the reality of climate change. Spanning media including photography, painting, and sculpture, artists’ work engages with these themes through sustainable materials and processes; formal and representational choices; critical and intersectional perspectives on climate change; and galvanizing communities facing the impact of climate change through art.
