Workshop and conversation: Trees, Art, and Climate with Clint Hunker and Dr. Chukwudi Amadi

Join soil and environmental scientist Dr. Chukwudi Amadi and artist Clint Hunker for a hands-on workshop. Through drawing and discussion, participants will learn how trees are affected by climate change. Amadi will share what drew him to this field of research, his knowledge of the prairie ecosystem in the context of systems around the world, and potential innovations in science that could work against climate change. Hunker’s drawing Melting Fields on the Bergheim Road, 1982 is included in the exhibition Forecast. Hunker will share his knowledge gained from working en plein air for over four decades.
