SUMMARY:Visualizing the Pyrocene: The Wildfire Timeline
DESCRIPTION:Yekta Tarki (she/her) is originally from Iran where she receive
 d her BFA and her first Master’s Degree in Fine Art at the Tehran Univers
 ity of Art. She came to Canada in 2023 where she explored the visualizing t
 he pyrocene\, addressing climate change through art and posthumanism at the
  University of Calgary and earned her second Master’s Degree in Fine Art.
  She now resides in Toronto\, Ontario\, Canada.\n\nYekta explores the relat
 ionship between humans and nature amidst environmental crises through her d
 rawings and paintings. She focuses on disasters caused by climate change\, 
 and over the past two years\, she has investigated the phenomenon of wildfi
 res\, specifically the Fort McMurray wildfire in Alberta\, Canada. Her artw
 orks draw on scientific data to represent the timeline of the wildfire\, fr
 om its onset to its aftermath. Through abstraction\, Yekta translates the w
 ildfire’s timeline—from ignition to aftermath—into visual form. Shape
 s\, lines\, and colors become expressive tools that reinterpret fire\, enco
 uraging viewers to observe\, imagine\, and construct meaning through their 
 own emotional and intellectual responses.\n\nhttps://www.visitcalgary.com/e
