Beyond Sight: Lea Kannar-Lichtenberger
Strathfield Library & Innovation Hub
19 February – 18 April 2021
Lea Kannar-Lichtenberger explores the world of plants and evolution through an exhibition of photographs, video and sculpture. Using the microscopic image Lea examines the connections between art and science, creating awareness surrounding the alterations we make in nature to transform the flora and social, ethical, and cultural values in society.
Beyond Sight is an exhibition that initiates a dialogue surrounding Climate Change, the Anthropocene and the evolutionary impact this time will have on life on this planet.
