I've just published a new page on my website documenting the last 3 months on an art residency exploring fire through the plant aiteann (gorse) and its relationship to sitka spruce: shanefinan.org/VAP/15_aiteann.…

“The news coverage of the smoke palls swirling out of Canada across the East Coast has centered on the substantial threat to people suffering from asthma, heart disease & other ailments exacerbated by smoke inhalation.

This would be a great moment to remind North American audiences that much of the developing world lives, indoors & outside, with vastly worse smoke exposure.” revkin.substack.com/p/putting-…
