 ART WORKS RESIDENCY 2016

As part of the Art Works Residency in 2016 I created a project entitled: Moving Like a River, which collaboratively re-imagines the role of the San Lorenzo River through art and science. I engaged visitors in map-making, water-quality testing, and provided creative river field guides in both English and Spanish for self-guided tours. I collaborated with local topography mapmaker Mathew Jaimeson to create three life-sized maps of the entire San Lorenzo Watershed, as well as River Scientist Alev Bilginsoy with the CWC to render one of the large maps in UV-respondent bacteria, to highlight the naturally occurring, and human-created bacteria found throughout its tributaries. I also worked with the Santa Cruz Sand Quarry to build an interactive Erosion Sculpture highlighting the natural process erosion and the influence of human development on river water turbidity.

Add your photographs and video to the growing database of images of the river. This community collection of imagery will become a panoramic portrait of the river environment for the Museum of Art and History for the June 2016 Art Works residency.
