Ammy McCollum | Entangled Ecosystems

September 6 & October 4 | 6 – 9pm

Ammy McCollum identifies as a queer visual artist and illustrator who creates work that tells the stories of unique characters and personalities found in nature. Elements of her work are fantastical, but they are built on a foundation of realism. Her work is for people looking for a connection to nature around them. The art takes the viewer on a journey of interconnectedness; exploring compelling and complicated relationships inherent in the natural world. By focusing on our local natural resources she hopes to bring them into the vibrant light of awareness, appreciation, and inspire curiosity about the world outside of four walls.
