Drawn Ashore, Sprouting Signals, and Oxygenated Response are mixed-media installations that examine our connection to the Hudson River. These works were created in response to a collaboration with scientists from Columbia University where we submerged ourselves into the Hudson to experience and research the diversity of life that exists within. Through these works, I am further exposing the life below the surface, calling attention to what we, as humans, add to the water, and celebrating the hopefulness for the future of water by highlighting writings from participants of “The Next Generation of Hudson River Educators.”
