116. Sarah Nelson: AI, the Arctic, and a year of art shows

Sarah Nelson is an environmentally focused illustrator who's currently making work about climate change (among other things).

We talk about the future of AI and the planet (we might have more of a say than we think), creating from passion vs. personal narrative, and what do you do when your job disappears overnight? This episode was recorded in June.

Her solo exhibition is on now!!

Opens September 6th, reception September 22nd
at the Art History Gallery at the University of St Thomas
