"people" in the news

shane brennan--Art Semiotics Alum Website

shane brennan (2007 alum) New Climates Project (honors thesis) was featured in the Phoenix. His project offers videos of skies, styrofoam models of the Arctic, and maps of data. Providence artist Joe Milutis’s video Line of 32 shows footage of satellite weather maps, people walking snowy streets, and ice rolling on slushy water; meanwhile, a man says, “I have started to think of cold as a rare thing, part of the past, I don’t know if I believe it exists anymore, so I drive for hours just to find a place where it dips below 32.” The video feels like a sketch, but it’s filled with the sad sense that winter is becoming an endangered species.

Scott Pagano--Art Semiotics Alum Website
