SUMMARY:Artist Reception\, A Sentient Land: Artistic Alliances with Forests\, Beetles\, Salt\, and Air
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, January 21\, 5:00 – 7:00 pm \n\n\n\nMedia Art Gallery\, 25 Avery Street\, Boston MA \n\n\n\n\n\nCelebrate the opening of this groundbreaking four-person exhibition featuring artists Margaux Crump\, Julia Krupa\, Eileen Ryan\, and Nelly-Eve Rajotte\, who blur the boundaries between creator and material\, science and art\, human and more-than-human. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExperience immersive installations that invite direct dialogue with the natural world. Through innovative methods including bio-sonification\, cloud chambers\, LIDAR scanning\, and ancient practices like fumage and saining\, these artists share authorship with trees\, stones\, salt\, and air itself. \n\n\n\nThis is your first opportunity to encounter works that challenge traditional notions of artistic agency and forge new pathways for interspecies connection. Witness how forests communicate at 220 hertz\, how materials become collaborators\, and how art can shift our relationship with the living world. \n\n\n\nMeet the artists and the curator\, Shana Dumont Garr\, and explore questions that bridge aesthetics\, ecology\, and empathy: What happens when materials inform their own representation? How do we translate on behalf of the more-than-human? \n\n\n\nLight refreshments will be served. \n\n\n\nExhibition runs January 21 – March 28\, 2026Gallery hours: Tuesday–Saturday\, 12–6 PM \n\n\n\nFree and open to the public \n\n\n\nimage: Eileen Ryan

Crump will share insights into her process of working with materials as co-creators\, exploring how stones\, beetles\, and other elements inform the artistic outcome. \n\n\n\nTogether\, they’ll explore questions at the heart of A Sentient Land: How do we share authorship with non-human collaborators? What does it mean to translate on behalf of materials? How can art deepen our empathy and connection across species? \n\n\n\nThis conversation offers a rare opportunity to hear directly from two artists reimagining the relationship between maker and material\, challenging us to consider the agency of the more-than-human world. \n\n\n\nFree and open to the publicNo registration required
