This is an Artist research group on the theme of water and the contemporary arts that I'm part of. In the present socio-cultural moment, water is increasingly the subject of discussion and contestation in public discourse. Our project uses research and practice in visual art to address the subject of water regarding its cultural and environmental importance, by linking the historical art practice of picturing nature with the potential of visual representation to offer opportunities for aesthetic and socio-cultural engagement.
It is a goal of the project to bring together Canadian and international artists/researchers from multiple backgrounds to highlight a multitude of linked concerns of those individuals and their work.
