family farm bed

In September 2024 I was selected by the ArtServancy Residency sponsored by Gallery 224 in Port Washington and five partnerships with the Ozaukee Washington Land Trust, the River Revitalization Foundation, the Lake Michigan Bird ObservatoryTall Pines Conservancy and the Milwaukee Area Land Conservancy. Artist Residents create a body of artwork inspired by the property, culminating in a month-long exhibition at Gallery 224. Programming is offered throughout their residency year, including an ongoing blog featuring the artist on A Wealth of Nature, on-site tours, performances, workshops and demonstrations. 

I am partnered with Pearl Forge Conservancy, part of the Tall Pines Conservancy. I am working on a multimedia sculptural piece called The Family Farm Bed. Its a journey, discovering a new place, the farmers and family who steward the land and all the animals, insects, birds and plants I find and document. Below I will add images of the process and information about the events affiliated with The Family Farm Bed, along side musings and notes I make along the way. Join me in the process!
