Sedimental Journey

An abandoned iced over fishing hole in the Minnesota River launched me on this journey of seeing, really seeing the Big River. I work as an artist to create community with the River and with all of us that have a bond with the Father of Waters. This exhibition’s work was created from, in, with, and by the waters of the Upper Midwest Mississippi River Watershed. I dare to see and make art within the devastating truth and beauty of our toxic relationship with the Big River. Here I am specifically seeing the sediment from farming practices along the Minnesota Valley that is filling up Lake Pepin. I give voice to the River when I share what I see with you. This art making is where I find my deep love of this ecosystem that feeds our bodies and spirit.
