Art and Climate Change: An Artist Talk with Judy Major-Girardin

She is Professor Emerita from the School of the Arts at McMaster University where she taught for thirty-nine years. She lives in Cambridge Ontario and has served as Co-Chair of the Cambridge Sculpture Garden since 2005. Her studio work includes an integrated practise of painting, printmaking, drawing, artist books, and hanging fiber-based works that raise awareness for the preservation and celebration of wetland environments. Employing environmentally responsible studio practices is central to her work.
