Samantha Slone
Samantha Slone is a Filipina-American artist whose work is most heavily concerned with global environmentalism in the context of first-world paradigms and biracial intersectionality.
Through her current work, she researches and explores human and environmental interconnectivity through a lens of socioeconomic and consumerist systems. She utilizes a visual reference to still-lifes of the Dutch Golden Age to frame themes of consumption, capitalism, and colonization in the contemporary realm of climate and social justice.
