Molly Magai makes paintings of landscapes dominated by cities, roads, industry, and the living things that inhabit them. These structures, created for human convenience, are very much in conflict with nature. They are also an awe-inspiring human accomplishment, the work of generations of builders and engineers. Most of us ignore these landscapes as we pass by them. Magai’s job as a genre painter is to make you see them, in their destructiveness and their beauty.
Magai make paintings based on snapshots she takes from a moving vehicle. Handicapped by the car’s speed, the camera creates inadvertent effects – unexpected colors, halos, and blurs. She is interested in the sensation of speed, and the way the image is filtered first through the camera, the painter, and the painting.

You’re invited to talk about climate change with Michael Foster of 350.org
April 13, 2016 by Leave a Comment
The campus community is invited to attend a two-day lecture by Michael Foster of 350.org, one of the major organizations fighting against global warming. Michael will be speaking to two English 101 classes on Monday and Tuesday, May 9 and 10, at 7:30 am and 8:30 am in Room 1727. Faculty are welcome to bring their classes.
Please RSVP to Nancy Eichner at neichner@shoreline.edu if you plan to attend so that we can ensure the space is big enough to accommodate everyone.
A little about Michael Foster: He has an excellent Power Point presentation and connects well with students. He is a clinical psychologist by trade, but has devoted himself to the anti-global warming struggle for several years. One of his major accomplishments has been to establish and direct the local Plant for the Planet group, an international organization begun a few years ago by a nine-year-old from Germany. Michael has been trained in presenting to groups about climate change by Al Gore’s foundation.
The first day of Michael’s presentation will be about the climate change situation—a survey of global warming causes and effects. The second day focuses on solutions.
We hope to see you May 9 and 10 – please remember to rsvp to neichner@shoreline.edu if you can make it!
