Scientists consider the acquisition of fire as the defining property separating humans from animals. Fire is not possible without oxygen- to burn, fire requires the air we breathe. Fire illuminates our world as it consumes fuel but in the wake of its destruction, fire can also be the catalyst for new life.

In this final 2020 exploration of the four elements, participating artists have been playful, meditative and even mournful as they explore the many properties of Fire.

Artists: LeAnn Erickson and Jake Rasmussen
