𝑫𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚 𝑬𝒄𝒐𝒍𝒐𝒈𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝑴𝒐𝒓𝒆-𝑻𝒉𝒂𝒏-𝑯𝒖𝒎𝒂𝒏 𝑻𝒊𝒎𝒆 is a body of work that explores ways of listening to the pattern language of nature to help us better understand how a more ecologically-conscious future can come into being. ~Listening to plants through the memory of water, creating space for sacred in setting place , orienting at the meeting place of the directions, a portal at the opening between a dying world and one to come, a drop of water remembering the ocean~

As part of the exhibition, Heavy Metal, at Los Angeles Municipal art Gallery, curated by Nancy Meyer. Revisiting and challenging the historically dominant narratives of large-scale abstraction, sculpture, and Land Art, Heavy Metal is a group exhibition that engages with the legacy of formalism while confronting colonial histories, memory, and the natural world. Through diverse practices and a distinctly feminist, material sensitivity, the artists reimagine the relationship between the body, object, and environment.
