My work places the viewer in the midst of global climate change and environmental upheaval. It is also steeped in the philosophy of the Feminine Sublime—an expansive, transformative and sensory approach to the Sublime. – Michel Droge
For the past decade my work as an artist has been based upon establishing new relationships between the Arts, Humanities and the field of Geographic Information Science. My work blends personal expression with objective views of natural and built environments. Often, I work collaboratively in the capacity of directing cultural projects for varied communities. The projects include components such as: exhibitions, displays, interventions, performances and other public presentations. – Jan Piribeck
