Emma Stibbon is a British artist whose work considers the complexities of extreme environments. Her depictions of arctic ice and glacial melt have been celebrated in exhibitions throughout Europe. Since 2018, Stibbon has expanded her inquiry of harsh landscapes to include the deserts of the American Southwest. Desert Sublime is the first survey of the artist’s work made in the California desert. Desert Sublime follows Some Bodies: Oceanic Imagination in Contemporary Art as the second in the planned series of six exhibitions focused on the themes of Natural Landscapes and Human Meaning at the Humanities Center Gallery. 

Emma Stibbon will be in conversation with Derrick Cartwright on Tuesday, March 21 at 4 p.m. (via Zoom).
