SUMMARY:Closing Reception & Artist Talk: Deep Futures: Sites of Toxic Land Use by Amanda Leigh Evans
URL:https://events.ucf.edu/event/3977792/closing-reception-artist-talk-deep-futures-sites-of-toxic-land-use-by-amanda-leigh-evans/
DESCRIPTION:Join the [UCF Art Gallery](https://cah.ucf.edu/gallery/) for the closing reception of Deep Futures: Sites of Toxic Land Use by Amanda Leigh Evans on Feb. 13 from 5-7pm, with an artist talk at 6pm. \n\nExhibition Statement: \n\nSince 2018, Amanda Leigh Evans has been collecting raw materials (photos, rocks, soils, pressings, and archival images) from Superfund sites she visits throughout the United States. A Superfund site is designated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency as a polluted location that requires long-term cleanup of hazardous material contamination, and their collection is made with the utmost caution.  \n\nApproximately 78 million people (roughly 24% of the U.S. population) live within 3 miles of a Superfund site, yet many are unaware of the dangers these sites pose. Invisible threats to human and ecological health are often not visually apparent when walking or driving past these sites. To live in the 21st Century is to reckon with our proximity and complicity with the ongoing creation of these sites. \n\nEvan's exhibition features ceramic sculpture, collected raw materials, large-format collage images, and research materials from several Superfund sites she has visited over the years. The project began when the artist discovered that her maternal family, which has chronic and neurological health issues, was raised on the Bunker Hill Mine Superfund Site in Northern Idaho, one of the nation's largest and most complex Superfund sites in the United States. \n\nTo learn more about this exhibition, click [HERE](https://cah.ucf.edu/gallery/exhibit/deep-futures-sites-of-toxic-land-use-by-amanda-leigh-evans/).\nRegistration Link: https://www.ticketsource.com/ucf-art-gallery/t-krkykrp
