GIVE and TAKE explores the notion of reciprocity with nature, featuring works from Aaron Pancho and Jordan Conlan.
Looking both inward and outward, GIVE and TAKE presents a series of objects that investigate the exchanges that take place within our shared environment.
Through examining both individual and collaborative perspectives on reciprocity, the work does not seek to answer a question but instead invites viewers to reflect upon their own relationship with the natural world, engaging in an ongoing dialogue.
GIVE and TAKE is supported by CHAM.
