The “NESTed Roots” gallery debut will open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. beginning March 5 at its R2 Gallery, a news release stated. Each piece in the show will have a focus on jump starting conversations and advocate involvement to fight against climate change.
Carbondale Arts partnered with CU Boulder’s “Nature, Environment, Science & Technology” (NEST) Studio on the showing, a news release states.
The show will feature an array of mediums from art films to photogravure etchings, a type of printmaking process using a copper plate, and work from individuals who sit in the crosshairs between art and science. Dr. Jorge Perez-Gallego, one of the curators from the NEST program, said the work being shown will not shy away from causing intense emotions that in return will ideally lead to actions for change.

The Community Office For Resource Efficiency (CORE) is launching a valley-wide art installation to tell the story of climate change, in partnership with a host of local organizations, including Colorado Mountain College.
The community mural project “Stories of Climate Change/Historias del Cambio Climático” is a part of both CORE’s third annual Imagine Climate series and the Inside Out Project created by renowned muralist JR.
Community members are invited to join in the project by submitting a selfie and a voice recording in the language of their choice about their experience of climate change. Participant’s photos and stories will be displayed on the outside of Colorado Mountain College campus buildings in Aspen, Carbondale and Glenwood Springs beginning in early March.
