Katharine Owens, professor in the department of politics, economics, and international studies, is spending the month of September in residency at the Akureyri Art Museum in Akureyri, Iceland.
While there, she will further the Entangled and Ingested project, creating a life-sized portrait of a harp seal and hosting workshops with several schools in the district, to contribute to the life-sized portrait of an 80-foot fin whale.
Dr. Owens is on a sabbatical from the University of Hartford for the 2025–26 academic year. Follow the progress of this project on her website.
