Tackling Climate Crisis Through Collaboration: Guelph Today Shouts Out Zavitz Gallery Exhibit

“Manufactured Ecosystems,” a new exhibit at Zavitz Gallery at the University of Guelph examining the climate emergency and our future within it, was recently featured in Guelph Today. Embodying a cross-disciplinary approach, the exhibit bridges the arts and sciences and features collaborations between Canadian and international researchers. Curated by Dr. Christina Smylitopoulos, associate professor, School of Fine Art and Music, with support from Alyssa Ponte, fourth-year Art History student, the research team also includes PhD candidate Dave Dowhaniuk, School of Theatre, English, and Creative Writing. Led by Dr. Shoshanah Jacobs, Integrative Biology, the project showcases collaboration across several U of G areas.
