Dejamos nuestro último episodio preguntándonos sobre los costos de construir una casa con derivados de la arcilla. ¡Resulta que es barato! Entonces, si es barato, ¿más personas han aprovechado la oportunidad de construir de esta manera? y ¿por qué no se ha popularizado en entornos urbanos? Para responder a estas preguntas, continuamos la conversación con Miguel Ángel Pérez, un bioconstructor de Baja, y hablamos sobre los costos de la construcción con arcilla. Tambien charlamos con Rachel Formanek, una neoyorquina que se mudó de California a Baja para encontrar condiciones de vida mejores y más asequibles. Por último, nos sentamos con Alex Ruiz, director de planificación urbana en Tecate y nos dió una nueva perspectiva sobre la viabilidad de la construcción con tierra en entornos urbanos.

F1VEart Studio and Gallery would like to introduce Karla Preciado ...and her amazing abstract landscapes. Come join us Saturday, October 12 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. for a night of art and conversation. "Nature is my greatest muse, an endless source of inspiration that deeply influences my abstract landscapes. The connection between my art and the natural world is not just visual, but emotional and spiritual as well." "When I immerse myself in nature, whether it’s a dense forest, a serene coastline, flowers, or a vast desert, I’m struck by the profound sense of tranquility and joy that these environments evoke. It’s this emotional experience that I strive to capture in my work."

How do we regenerate the Pacific Forests? This is the central question in artworks made by Helen and Newton Harrison, starting with The Serpentine Lattice in 1993 and continuing to the present day with their research initiatives led by the Center for the Study of the Force Majeure at UC Santa Cruz. Their earlier work addresses forest clear-cutting, while the more recent work focuses on how forests are impacted by related public policy and climate change itself. Join us for a panel to explore how artworks in the exhibition speak to the current crisis in our forests. The panel is moderated by Anne Douglas and Chris Fremantle. Featured speakers include: - Josh Harrison, the Harrisons’ son and current Director of the Center for the Study of the Force Majeure at UC Santa Cruz. - Megan Jennings, Conservation Ecologist, Climate Science Alliance advisor, and Co-Director of San Diego State University's Institute for Ecological Monitoring and Management. - Ruth Wallen, artist and long-time collaborator with the Harrisons. - Joelene Tamm, founding member of the Southern California Fire, Fuels, and Forestry Cadre. - Will Madrigal, Jr., California Indian Professor of American Indian Studies/History/Language, and an enrolled member of the Cahuilla Band For more information visit: sandiego.librarymarket.com
