Confluence
Confluence is a collaborative installation created with Laurie Bogdan for the 2020 Art Ramble in the Hapgood Wright Town Forest of Concord, MA. It shows the damage done to the Sudbury, Assabet, and Concord River system by industrial waste and climate change. The confluence of the three rivers is clearer, showing the improvements in the health of the rivers due to the coming together of the communities through which the rivers flow.

Quarantine Chamber
At the beginning of the Covid-19 epidemic, we were all "staying safer at home" where I live. To encourage myself to go outside, I started creating an outdoor space that I called my "Quarantine Chamber." Built under my hemlock trees, it provided privacy and a place of contemplation, where I could restore my soul.

Ethereal Dreamer
.A collabortive installation with Laurie Bogdan at the Hapgood Wright Town Forest as part of the 2021 Art Ramble. With her agile flight and iridescent wings, she appears to be a miniscule dragon inhabiting the realms of the fairies, such as Fairyland Pond in the Hapgood-Wright Town Forest. In many cultures, the dragonfly symbolizes change or transformation. One could view this ethereal creature as a messenger who encourages us to molt off the negativity that holds us back, and to fly forth to achieve our goals and dreams.
