On today’s show, we visit with two artists in residence at Struts Gallery about their upcoming presentation, Voices from Scorched Earth, happening on April 22nd at Struts. Styvens Barrios Loch and Romi Fischer-Schmidt are in Sackville as part of a larger project looking at the connections between resource extraction, wealth, and art. Voices from Scorched Earth will feature traditional instruments, interviews and video connecting Sackvillians with the residents and land of El Estor, Guatamala.
