To the Ends of the Earth

Lauren Vroegindewey
November 2, 2019 – February 15, 2020

Lauren Vroegindewey believes it is the responsibility of artists to tell the complicated stories; to not be silent about the many injustices happening in the world. Through “To the Ends of the Earth”, Lauren hopes to raise awareness of environmental issues, evoke change, and document the beauty of the world. By using recyclable materials and upcycled trash, she transforms ordinary objects into art. She likes to turn everyday trash into environmentally-friendly works of art to remind the public how much waste is generated by humans. The environmental art movement emerged in the 1960s and early 1970s and primarily celebrates the artist’s connection with nature and explores humans’ relation to nature. The underlying themes of “To the Ends of the Earth” present notions of sustainability and vulnerability reminding us how easily we destroy our environment and our planet. The goal is to bring awareness and empowerment in order to minimize the carbon, plastic, and trash footprint and make strides to become more sustainable
