EnviroThursday - Space Place and Humanities Seminar Series
Speaker: Stephanie Lindquist, Artist-in-Residence, Media and Cultural Studies, Macalester
Join in conversation about the relationship between sustainability and pleasure as artist Stephanie Lindquist reflects over her last six months learning about water and care. Rooted in working with plants and soil in the garden, kitchen, and studio, she began an experimental sauna series last fall for activists, teachers, and students, which is coming to Macalester this semester. Together let’s consider the relationship between beauty and justice, as Stephanie explores the emotional, social, spiritual, and practical importance of sweating together.
Stephanie Lindquist is a visual artist and cultural producer from Los Angeles. She is presently an Artist-in-Residence at Macalester College working with activists, artists, humanities professors, and scientists around the Mississippi River.
