From River to Ocean: Artists Respond to Environmental Impacts
See women artists in an exhibition that explores environmental issues related to waterways and complex ecosystems found in various regions of the U.S. With a focus on environmental degradation and the depletion of our most important natural resource, the exhibition presents a myriad of human forces that negatively impact our rivers, estuaries, and oceanic waters that cover over 70% of the earth’s surface.
The exhibition is meant to build awareness and dialogue with Stockton area communities who are living at the edges of the largest natural estuary of North and South America.
Ann’s selected artworks, Kelp Forest 1 and 2, focus on the delicate interconnection between humans and our environment. The images were created using cyanotype on paper, printed with a combination of the artist’s profile and bull kelp sourced from Buckhorn Cove, Mendocino County.
