“Our lives are like islands in the sea, or like trees in the forest. The maple and the pine may whisper to each other with their leaves ... But the trees also commingle their roots in the darkness underground, and the islands also hang together through the ocean's bottom.” -William James Original woodblock print.

This exhibition endeavors to position the act of gardening within the realm of artistic, social and critical practice. A series of relief prints depicting local flora are accompanied by a selection of writings that establish a critical context through poetic meditations and cross-disciplinary research. The craft-oriented processes of natural dyeing, relief printing and woodworking consider attention as a form of gratitude. Reframing gardening as a critical artistic practice encourages a perceptual shift in our understandings of cultural value and the personal dimensions of our relationship to the natural world.

“Men may dam it and say that they have made a lake, but it will still be a river. It will keep its nature and bide its time, like a caged animal alert for the slightest opening. In time, it will have its way; the dam, like the ancient cliffs, will be carried away piecemeal in the currents.”— Wendell Berry Original woodblock print.

“The story is, a man came up to Yosemite and the ranger was sitting at the front gate and the man said, “I’ve only got one hour to see Yosemite. If you only had one hour to see Yosemite, what would you do?” And the ranger said, “Well, I’d go right over there and sit on that rock, and I’d cry.” - Nevada Barr, as told by Dayton Duncan, The National Parks: America’s Best Idea.

“There is hardly a pioneer's hut which does not contain a few odd volumes of Shakespeare.
