Her Land: Perspectives in Eco-Art

February 8 to May 11, 2025

Her Land: Perspectives in Eco-Art celebrates the pivotal contributions of women in the environmental art movement. This exhibition highlights artists whose work merges environmental activism, social commentary, and innovative installation practices, using ephemeral and site-specific works that challenge us to reconsider our relationship with the land.

Spanning a variety of media and approaches, Her Land highlights contemporary voices that address urgent themes of ecological sustainability, Indigenous land rights, and the intersectionality of environmental issues. This exhibition not only reasserts the significance of these artists in the narrative of Eco-Art but also proposes visionary futures through thoughtful stewardship of the earth.

Artists in the exhibition include:
Annie Briard, Sherri Chaba, Dana Claxton, Csetkwe Fortier, Joice M. Hall,
Gwen MacGregor, Monique Martin, Tara Nicholson, and Lyndal Osborne.
