Global reconstruction in the wake of climate change, land use and war have incited a new urgency regarding the well-being of the planet. In Unearthed, Dana Gentile introduces a smart and witty perspective to the often heavy dialogue concerning our impact on the environment and its resources. Reclaiming once discarded materials such as vintage newspapers, magazine pages, encyclopedia imagery, and household objects, Gentile’s installation and collage works are singular reflections informed by familiar medium and environmental issues that affect us all.
