Inspired by two decades in the Okanagan and conversations with her own son, Hansen’s five sculptures tackle urgent issues: food insecurity, extreme weather, water quality, ocean health, and biodiversity loss. One piece even visualizes water pollution through AI-generated data. Choosing encaustic for its eco-friendly, reusable nature, she invites viewers to connect emotionally—whether they’re climate skeptics or believers—through shared experiences like forest fires. Local art leaders praise her boldness, and as Kelowna’s Artist in Residence, she’s getting city backing to spark community dialogue. Don’t miss this timely, tactile, and deeply human response to our planet’s crisis. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
