Terra Anima
Exhibition Overview
This exhibition underscores the idea that soil is not inert, but rather a living environment, or as Claire Pentecost has stated: “Soil is a persistent community structure.” In support of visiting creative specialists and scholars for the Integrated Arts Research Initiative, works of art are exhibited alongside scientific pedagogical tools, including soil monoliths prepared by KU Soil Geomorphologist Daniel Hirmas, and organismal trace pourings prepared by KU Ichnologist Stephen Hasiotis. For Terra Anima, IARI highlights artists and scientists together as makers of objects worthy of cultural contemplation.
