Artist-in-Residence at Naumkeag, Stockbridge MA
A summer of work grounded in time, place and plants of Naumkeag.
A calendar consisting of mono-prints lines one wall of the Jamesway barn—reading left to right—marking the plants and leaves gathered daily from June to September.
Books, constructed of paper and thread dyed from plants, barks and leaves, installed throughout the barn.
A series of prints made from oak leaves, oak bark, pinecones and metal line the feeding trough.
