Hibernaculum Update

I am happy to successfully return from my second of five visits to Trifecta Editions Hibernaculum artist residency program in the Adirondack Mountains. Creative highlights included testing various design prototypes and mock-ups including the "timber target," "snack stand" and several trail and site marker options for a path and wayfinding system for the 30 acre site. As part of my contribution to the residency I'm designing and managing the installation of a low-impact path system that will link points of ecological and geological interest as well as dozen of my light-touch landscape installations. Installations all fall within the framework of alternative visualization of woodland ecology processes and challenges.

Forman Watercolor Diagrams

Forman Watercolor Diagram project is complete. In preparation for my Trifecta Editions artist residency in the Adirondack region, I created three dozen study diagrams based on Richard TT Forman's Landscape Mosaic.  A dozen select regional ecology diagrams can now be viewed on the project page here.

The Wild West Creative

Wild West by BDGA is a multi-disciplinary art and design installation that was made possible by an A-team of creative professionals with a wonderfully diverse set of skills and interests. Although the project can be viewed as an exhibition of art and design, it is also an exhibition of skill and talent. Learn more about these esteemed collaborators here.

Interview with Land8's Lucy Wang

It was a pleasure discussing my recent landscape-proposal-per-day-project with Land8 Editor, Lucy Wang. The interview explores the project in terms of landscape architecture, self-directed professional development as an emerging designer/artist, and the power of daily creative excercise. You can read the Q&A here.

Also, a friendly reminder: The Fun-A-Day exhibition opening reception is this Friday (2/21).
