Her practice focuses on thinking deeply about the concept of disaster\, its complexity\, and its intricacies. She has a BSc with a specialization in Environmental Biology from the University of Alberta\, a certificate in Film Studies from Ryerson (now Toronto Metropolitan) University\, an MFA from the San Francisco Art Institute\, and a PhD in Art & Visual Culture from the University of Western Ontario. In her recent PhD dissertation (2020) Battle researched community responses to disasters— how they take shape and especially how artistic and online models might help to frame and strengthen such responses. \nSUPPORT\nRiver on Fire is supported in part by the Texas Commission on the Arts\, the City of Houston through the Houston Arts Alliance\, The Brown Foundation\, Inc.\, Houston Endowment\, DiverseWorks members and patrons\, and Teiger Foundation\, with climate coaching for exhibition production and programming provided by Rute Collaborative as part of Teiger Foundation’s Climate Action Pilot.
