In this episode, we meet with Xavier Cortada - one of Miami’s pioneer eco-artists. He works across various mediums of art to generate awareness and action around climate change, sea level rise, and biodiversity loss. Xavier is also a Professor of Practice at the University of Miami Department of Art and Art History, and Artist-in-Residence at Pinecrest Gardens, where his studio, gallery, and socially engaged art practice are based.
