ART: Losing Winter | Opening Reception | Lynn Cazabon

Description

Losing Winter Lynn Cazabon Opening Reception / Meet the Artists: Friday, February 7 / 5-8pm Exhibit Runs: February 7 - March 30, 2025 Free and open to the public! -- Cazabon is presenting a unique and site-specific realization of Losing Winter, an ongoing participatory artwork and archive of memories and emotions about winter, revealing the personal and cultural ties we have to the season and reflecting upon what we are collectively losing due to climate change impacts on seasonal patterns. The project addresses the phenomenon of environmental amnesia, wherein with each new generation the changed or degraded state of the environment is perceived as normal, by preserving personal memories about the season as it was in the past in a particular location.

The exhibition for 3S Artspace will include recorded memories about winter from Seacoast community residents, original artworks created by Portsmouth High School students, and historical and recent photographs, videos, and sounds of the season in Portsmouth and the Seacoast region.
