On view at the Kellogg Library at CSU San Marcos through July 2023. View the exhibit online here. From the organizers: The exhibition is a collection of plant-based sculpture and assemblage created by Britton Neubacher, M.A. (B.A. and M.A. in Women’s Studies with a focus on community organizing) and full-time artist. Neubacher’s sustainably-minded work explores nature’s organizing principles of adaptation, integration, and renewal through fractal geometries and “suspended animation” materials. "Working with plants as my medium has shown me just how adaptive and tenacious the natural world is. There is no forcing my will onto the things of nature. If I want to enjoy my process I will see them as collaborators and allow them to shape me back. In exploring the animating relationship between people and plants, and the natural order/disorder of our complex partnership, I imagine that something more hopeful can be born between us." - Britton Neubacher For detailed library hours information, go here.
