My collaborator Meredith Brickell and I have created an interactive installation for the Indiana State Museum’s new exhibition about the opioid crisis. The show explores the complexities of its challenging subject by blending history, science, and art. It is such an honor to be part of this amazing museum project!

After years of planning, research, and collaboration with local and international partners, it’s exciting to have Climates of Inequality on view in Indianapolis! The collaboratively curated exhibit organized by the Humanities Action Lab features contributions from more than 20 communities that are working to address environmental injustices.

Over the course of 3 semesters IUPUI Museum Studies students partnered with the Kheprw Institute to study and share stories about environmental justice and Indianapolis’s waterways. Their work is part of the traveling exhibition and also included on the project’s digital platform.
