Waterscapes: A Tale of Two Wetlands (59 seconds) was created with footage from my Venetian residency, enriched with both current and archival photographs documenting the endangered ecosystems of South Florida. The video is an intimate and profound meditation on the relationship between humans, nature, and the urban realities that compete for space, creating an ode to these two distinct yet, in many ways, similar worlds that make them unique and threatened treasures.
This seven minute video chronicles the 2024 ARTSail residency that explores the natural and manmade wonders of the Florida Everglades and Italian Venetian Lagoon, two iconic yet endangered World Heritage Sites. Through a diverse range of media, including photographs, collages, paintings, and drawings, this project investigates humanity’s impact on these carefully crafted environments
