FACTION Art Projects is delighted to announce their latest exhibition A Perfect Storm curated by FACTION’s new Curator-In-Residence Natasha Becker.The exhibition will include work by Tatiana Arocha, Allison Janae Hamilton, Riitta Ikonen, Lionel Cruet, Joiri Minaya, Mark Tribe and Demian DinéYazhi ́ and draw on the pressing environmental issues of our planet.
A Perfect Storm refers to a rare combination of events, arising from a number of negative factors, that creates an unusually bad situation. It is an apt expression for the urgent and unresolved challenges of global warming, pollution, climate change, and many more environmental
problems that have become a reality for millions of people, primarily in the Global South.
Through drawing, painting, photography, and installation art, the artists presented in this exhibition offer varied interpretations on the interconnected realities of natural and human made environments, land and bodies, culture and memory.They take into consideration the voices of those with the most intimate knowledge of the environment and comment on their experiences of resistance, relocations, and adaptations.
