TFC – On the Front Lines of Sustainable Art
What will you do if you find yourself on the front lines of sustainable art? In this episode of The Frequency of Creativity, host Melinda Harr Curley welcomes guest Gina Herrera. Gina creates large, graceful sculptures made from found objects. She was a reservist in the military and served a one-year tour in Iraq. While there, she was saddened by the thousands of acres of trash the military left there called The Graveyard. When she returned to the U.S and enrolled in graduate school, she became more curious about the use of chemicals to create art. This experience inspired her to create art from found objects and establish her voice as an environmentalist. Please tune in to discover more about what it is like to be on the front lines of sustainable art.
