Collaborations
Plants, Place, & People: Intersections in Art, Ecosystem Science & Indigenous Knowledge
During 2017 and 2018, I worked with Colleen Friday on her comprehensive vegetation inventory study in Saint Lawrence and Paradise basins in the Wind River Mountains northwest of Fort Washakie, Wyoming. We studied the vegetation in 106 transect sites throughout the basins and received a Biodiversity in Art grant to create a visual arts project and put together the Plants, Place & People exhibition. Towards the end of the summer of 2017, we began a collaboration with Minnesota-based artist Catherine Meier, who is known for her detailed large-scale drawings of landscapes of the Great Plains.
Synchronized Recreation collaboration with Marty Dorst
In February 2014, Wyoming Art Party formulated a project called “Portrait of Wyoming” and invited visual artists, craft folk, and writers living in Wyoming to collaborate on a portrait of the state. Each participant would ‘start’ a piece and mail it to their partner, who would ‘finish’ it. There were no rules or guidelines other than that the piece had to be mailed in a 12”x12”x8” USPS box. I was paired with Marty Dorst, an artist, cowboy, leatherwork and scrimshaw artist from Dubois, Wyoming.
