Lea Kannar-Lichtenberger is an artist traveller, who works to create art that investigates the impact of contemporary society and tourism on sensitive ecosystems and island communities through immersive residencies or eco-tourism. 

Distorted Truths is an exploration of the questions that surround our very presence within these landscapes and in this instance the perceived pristine environment and Antarctic Adventure.

‘Lea Kannar-Lichtenberger takes this seriously, she thinks through relationships between the human and non-human, she collapses distinctions between the here and over there and calls for a realisation that our actions in this world are never inconsequential.’ Dr Laetitia Wilson
