A conversation moderated by Jane Chin Davidson will be conducted among artists and researchers in relation to the exhibition titled Transition and Transformation, the Constant Flux of our Personal Structures. This symposium creates an opportunity for participants to discuss the multiple overlapping factors causing major transitions globally; these include: Biological Factors, the effects our environment is having on the genetics and epigenetics of plants and animals; Environmental Factors, climate change’s effects on landscapes and human livelihoods; and Socio-Political Factors, mass migration and forced immigration, effecting the indigenous population and homelessness worldwide.
