Cynthia Back







This artist Cynthia Back is one that I looked at and really liked her work. I think that something like this would be interesting to the environmental aspect of the show. The three images of hers that I picked and especially liked are attatched; what i enjoy about them is the way that Back makes the images have very organic colors and shapes (especially in Cul-de-Sacs), yet they aren't environmentally natural things. Back describes her work as "referencing our changing landscapes; the spread of suburban environments, mining and other industries, the subsequent destruction of habitats, farms and forests and the homogenization and sameness of much of suburban growth, strip malls and roads". I think that something like this could be a good addition!
