Summary

Mixed Media Fine Art

Details

"Indirect Take" is a mixed media exhibition created by artist and University of Wisconsin, Assistant Professor, Emily Arthur. The work in this show is a response to an active controversy between scientists, environmentalists and government policy as the protection of an endemic bird population is threatened. A majority of this artwork was made during Arthur's residency at the Moore Laboratory of Zoology, Occidental College, Los Angeles, where the research of John E. McCormack and James M. Maley is challenging negative results in studies effecting conservation of a species. The series of works on paper is an observation of contemporary, zoological research; scientific data collection and how this data could be manipulated to control the outcome.
