Description
Rachel Sussman has spent the last five years photographing 25 different organisms as part of an exhibition of photographs entitled ‘The Oldest Living Things in the World’. Her photographs include continuously living organisms 2,000 years old and older including a 2,000-year-old primitive conifer in the Namibian desert, and a half a million year old bacteria living in permafrost in Siberia. Organized and curated by Kelly Sicat, director of the Lucas Artists Residency Program at Montalvo, the exhibit is part of Montalvo's 18-month long thematic program ‘Natural and Creative Capital,’ which explores issues of sustainability in our natural and creative environments.More Info
