I am looking forward to returning to Boston this September for an exhibition of new work at Simmons University’s Trustman Art Gallery. Reception (party!) Save-the-Date: September 8th.

Ghost Forests, a collaborative multidisciplinary exhibition will feature silkscreen prints, sculptures, fabric work, and mixed-media installation by David Buckley Borden and collaborators (from both New England and the Pacific Northwest). The narrative of the work focuses on North America’s dying forest ecosystems and our human response to the global earth crisis. The exhibition will run from September 6th to October 21st with an opening reception on Thursday, September 8th from 5 to 8PM.

Ghost Forests is collaborative in intent, process, production, and output. Beyond the artwork, the final installation can be viewed as an allied exhibition of science, art, and design talent. Collaborators currently include William Bonner, Christian Delano Borden, David Buckley Borden, Jack K. Byers, Cyrille Conan, Mike Demaggio, Laura Harmon, Tim Lillis, CC McGregor, Kenji Nakayama, Isaac Martinotti, Helen Popinchalk, Madison Sanders, Nancy Silvers, and Ian Vierck.

Exhibition support provided by Simmons Art Department, the Fuller Initiative for Productive Landscapes at Oregon University, and the Oregon State University Foundation’s Andrews Fund.
