Sheigla Hartman created "Burns Creek" using etching techniques, and she printed the artwork in December 1994. Born in 1943, Hartman has witnessed significant shifts in environmental awareness and artistic expression. Her choice of Burns Creek, a natural landscape, invites us to reflect on our relationship with the environment. Her work is not a traditional landscape, it is more like an emotional geography. Hartman's approach to line and form may be seen as a commentary on the interconnectedness of nature and the subtle yet profound ways we perceive it. In this context, "Burns Creek" serves as a reminder of the environmental issues of our time, prompting us to reconsider our responsibilities towards the natural world. It’s a quiet call to awareness, inviting a dialogue about preservation and respect for the landscapes that shape our world.
