Jennifer Lord, David D'Agostino, & Noah Travis Phillips "Bigger View(s): Earth, Anthropocene, Beauty"


Artists: Jennifer Lord, David D'Agostino, & Noah Travis Phillips

Venue: Boulder Public Library
Exhibition Title: Bigger View(s): Earth, Anthropocene, Beauty

Date: August 5 – October 16, 2021

Note: The artists Jennifer Lord, Noah Travis Phillips, and David D’Agostino create multi-centered, parallel simultaneous realities that celebrate nature and disrupt humanities extractive paradigms and anthropocene legacies. Bigger View(s): Earth, Anthropocene, Beauty suggests that another world is possible. The art questions dualistic understandings both formally and thematically, shifting the view from the human-centric to the more-than-human and opening feeling-ways into new modes of being with(in). The artwork conjures feelings of harmony, beauty, sublimity, grief and interconnection. We posit this as a way forward through the Anthropocene. Another world is possible.

The Week of All Beings

How to Celebrate The Week of All Beings
  1. Eat a vegetarian diet for seven days
  2. Learn about a Being: animal, plant, fungi, etc.
  3. Share what you learned with a loved one, co-worker, classmate, or friend

Why to Celebrate The Week of All Beings
The Week of All Beings is about creating personal connections with the living beyond-human world. We are related not only to every living thing, but also to everything that has ever lived on Earth. One of the high impact actions that individuals can take to counter climate change recommended by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is to eat a plant based diet. Learning about an animal expands one’s awareness of and connection to other beings, and can teach you new things about being human. Sharing what you learn extends the network. It connects you, your animal, and your learning with others. You can add a personal touch to your celebration by dressing like your animal and/or making an artwork about or inspired by your learning.

Share what you’ve learned with us!
