Inspired by Rachel Carson’s The Sea Around Us, this interdisciplinary series engages drawing, sculpture, and installation to examine the ocean as both material system and cultural imaginary. Utilizing marbled unglazed clay, brass, steel, graphite, wax, mirror and wood, the works foreground processes of sedimentation, geological time and tension between the natural and built environment. Individually and collectively, the works evoke the complex beauty, slow violence, and reciprocal entanglements that surface as urban and ecological systems inform one another. Each title is sourced from Carson’s 1951 text, positioning the series in dialogue with a lineage of ecological scholarship.
