Figment Exhibit
Scarring Our Water on "Pallet City"
Governors Island NYC
July 2, 2010 - August 6, 2010

Scarring Our Water
, based on the cartography of the waterway and surrounding land, looks at the East River, the chemicals in the river, and the potential human health affects.  Recycled industrial three inch diameter bamboo scarred with the burn marks of names of the chemicals in the river, and their documented health affects, combine with mixed media on the canvas to create a metaphor for the river bed of not so subtle pollution.  The hope for the East River is based on educating the public on the realities of the situation and the possibilities of healing the East river can be found in the field of environmental science and community partnerships.  The location where the hope can begin is the small, round greenish region, Governors Island.
