Brief introduction to the exhibition:

The artist traveled to several states of the United States, such as Florida, Oregon, Nevada, and Idaho, and created his work based on the fact that nature is being destroyed and losing its original appearance. This era in which the natural world is being destroyed is called the Anthropocene by scientists, and because this global disaster is also relevant to Mongolians, we decided to hold this exhibition in Mongolia. In addition to teaching Mongolian, Indiana University also has a Mongolian studies department, so this exhibition organized by Indiana University in Mongolia has a certain effect on the cultural relations between the two countries.
