Madeleine Young is a cross-disciplinary artist and designer whose practice muddies the boundaries between written, sculptural, and experiential modes of work. She investigates death and decay in natural systems and the subsequent possibilities for renewal by locating unintentional collaboration sites between humans and the natural environment to find and assemble objects as anthropocenic artifacts.
Soil is constantly being formed and reformed by geologic and human disturbances. Rich soil produces the food we grow and eat for energy, but it can also generate electrical energy to sustain our built environment. Join us for an afternoon to learn about the power of drawing on energy sources from the world around us, and how the cycles of soil composting can fuel our futures. We will be building our own small earth batteries out of recycled materials, soil, and hardware to power a small bulb.
