The Dartmouth has published a spotlight feature on Associate Professor Christina Seely and her recent exhibition "Dissonance" at the Jaffe-Friede and Strauss galleries. About the show Zoe Chen writes,

All of the pieces work together to highlight the complexities of the contemporary human relationship with the natural world. The striking beauty of each piece both showcases and obscures the reality of an ever-evolving landscape, globally shaped by the effects of human actions. Seely confronts the viewer, intimately and spectacularly, with the dark truth. And even though such realities lie thousands of miles away from the gallery, her artwork offers an opportunity to witness them up close.
