Details
Meet the artists behind the new climate inspired art show at the Mills Building with KALW Public Media in Downtown San Francisco.
KALW & the Swig Company are proud to present a look inside the new installation at the Mills Building. Earth, Air, Fire, Water, is a multi-media exhibition featuring Bay Area artists that focuses on climate change and elemental forces. KALW Executive Producer Ben Trefny will be in conversation with curator Kerri Hurtado and artists Tanja Geis, Andrew Owen, and Lordy Rodriguez. This exhibition, which runs now until May 8, 2026, invites viewers to consider climate change as an ongoing condition embedded in everyday life. This special event will occur in KALW's Live Event Studio at the Mills Building.
Featuring photography, drawings, paintings, and collages, artists Francis Baker, Tanja Geis, Hughen/Starkweather, Cynthia Ona Innis, Andrew Owen, Lordy Rodriguez, and Arngunnur Ýr use data, direct observation, and materials including sun and soil, to translate environmental systems into artworks that emphasize accumulation, transformation, and time.
This exhibition is a part of a rotating exhibition program sponsored by The Mills Building for the benefit of its tenants and visitors, curated by Artsource Consulting.
The Mills Building is located at 220 Montgomery Street in San Francisco, open Monday-Friday, 7am-6pm.
