Curated by Eveline Kolijn, this timely exhibition features a compelling body of work in which 20 Alberta printmakers and 20 Alberta writers created their vision on sustainable energy transition and climate change in Alberta.
Eveline Kolijn, project curator and contributing artist, experienced an international childhood that exposed her to remote places, where she learned to love unspoiled parts of nature. These experiences have been foundational. Reflecting on the necessity in our society to combat climate change and preserve biodiversity, her practice operates in the transdisciplinary space of art, science, and social activism. This path has led to a Fellowship with the Energy Futures Lab (EFL) in 2018. The non-profit Lab is based in Alberta and consists of 40 to 60 Fellows and support staff. They are a network of innovators and influencers with diverse views and come from government and communities, the energy sector, First Nations, non-profits, academia, and the arts. The EFL supports change-makers as they collaboratively explore the following question: How can we leverage Canada's assets and innovation capacity to accelerate an inclusive and equitable transition to a prosperous net-zero future?
