‘In Medias Res: Expanded’ celebrates the contributions of feminist and post-cyberfeminist artists who live in the vibrant city of Los Angeles. The artworks in this exhibition reflect today’s digital uprootedness from time-based narratives of the silver screen to invoke liminal spaces of belonging. They challenge conventional definitions of cities and urban identities in relation to mainstream media, geography and land ownership.

Imagining Space in the 21st Century – Driven by our access to vast amounts of data, advancements in scanning technologies, and an intensified sense of global interconnectedness, these practices are crafting new forms of visual expression. They challenge and broaden our conventional understanding of place, while transforming complex data into compelling visual narratives. The works featured in this exhibition are at the heart of this shift, capturing and communicating the intricate tapestry of contemporary life through a reinvented visual media.

A selected group of artists and scientists from the Supercollider and California State University of Channel Islands will present new creative research and art projects from this year’s SciArt Research Trip to Santa Rosa Island Field Station. Works will also be displayed in a curated exhibition at 643 Project Space in Ventura, CA for the month of November.

Presented by the Climate Science Alliance, the 2023 San Diego Climate Summit will uplift and celebrate our shared stories of transformational climate adaptation. These stories share not only how we can adapt to a changing climate, but how we might transform our natural and human communities for the better.

As a cross-section of world-making strategies, No Song Unsung showcases the hybrid practices of a community of artists imagining alternative systems to the present. Within these constellated works, the stakes, methods, and possibilities of worlding are explored under the framework of Donna Haraway’s concept of “sympoesis”, or “making-with”. Sympoesis is an ongoing process of cultivating relationships where the human and more-than-human merge; it is an eternal practice of becoming-with an eternal song.

This dynamic multifaceted exhibition examines the environmental issues we are currently facing, as well as celebrating the natural world.
