ENVIRONMENT

Grounded

Grounded is a portrait series highlighting environmental injustices to inspire thought in the BIPOC community about their relationship with land, identity, and culture. To further reach the BIPOC Community, we held an art show highlighting the portrait series and showcasing local BIPOC artists. We held an educational panel for community to gain a deeper connection at the GROUNDED. Art Show.We believe there is a need to reverse or reconcile the effects of environmental injustice on communities with histories of slavery, migration, colonization (or other injustices) with a special centralization of the indigenous people to Turtle Island.
