Sandra Hansen | Our Exquisite Pollution Series: Under the Sea
The Evanston Art Center (EAC) is excited to welcome the public to our upcoming exhibition, Sandra Hansen | Our Exquisite Pollution Series: Under the Sea. The exhibition will be on display from March 28 – April 26, 2026, with an opening reception on Sunday, March 29, from 1-4pm that will be free and open to the public.
In Our Exquisite Pollution Series: Under the Sea, environmental artist Sandra Hansen creates water scenes with pure, sustainable handmade paper and repurposed plastics found decaying on the beaches. As the environmental crisis grows larger, so does Hansen’s art. She moved from oil painting to paper making and began crafting massive papers to explain the immensity of the issue. Hansen’s work has evolved into installation with lighting, sound, and movement, where viewers are engulfed in an underwater-like space with paper sea creatures.
