MAINE ENVIRONMENTAL NEWS • November 24, 2023
This two-part exhibition, taking place at both the Portland and Biddeford UNE Art Galleries, highlights the role of plants in the environment and in the creative imagination. Plants are a primary source of subject matter for many artists, providing a rich and varied visual stimulus paired with a narrative of growth, ascension, and decay. Scientists hone their understanding of ecosystems and environmental interdependence through close study of plants and trees. Meet artists Rebecca Goodale, Gretchen Halpert, and Raquel P. Miller, and student-cartographer Matthew Pittsley November 27, 12:30-1:30 pm in the Ketchum Library UNE Art Gallery, Biddeford. The exhibit is on view at the UNE Art Gallery, Biddeford, through January 7, 2024.
