You’re invited to an artist talk by David Paul Bayles, as he discusses his work on “Following Fire: A Resilient Forest / An Uncertain Future.” Bayles focuses on landscapes where the needs of forests and human pursuits often collide, sometimes coexist and on occasion find harmony. Some of his projects utilize a documentary approach while others use a more contemporary art practice.
