Embarking on the River's Narrative

1/13/2024

 
My Journey as an Artist in "We Are the River"
Picture
​I'm thrilled my artwork will be a part of the upcoming Stockton University's Lower Gallery exhibition. As a citizen of the Nanticoke Lenape Nation, through the lens of my eyes, my photos offer a unique perspective on the intricate relationship between art, nature, and community. The exhibition, titled "We Are the River: Complex Narratives, Conservation & Committing to New Jersey's Waterways," curated by Ryann Casey and Allie Wilson, delves into the diverse ways contemporary artists engage with the rich history of New Jersey rivers.
 
My participation in the exhibition involves a collection of evocative photographs that delve into the multifaceted narratives surrounding New Jersey's waterways. I was rooted in the Nanticoke Lenape Nation traditions; I employ my unique perspective to reflect on the ecological challenges, personal stories, and the spirit of community that intertwines with our region's rivers.

​At the heart of "We Are the River" is an exploration of how artists like me become inspired by, engage with, and interlace our individual stories into the intricate tapestry of New Jersey's rivers. From the ecological adversities faced by these waterways to personal anecdotes and the collaborative efforts of communities, artists participating in the exhibition will contemplate the profound significance of rivers as both a vital resource and a shared experiential space.
 
Drawing inspiration from Robert Smithson's concept of "exploration," the exhibition takes a comprehensive approach to address the past, present, and future of the rivers that once sustained life but now pose threats to the very communities they helped build. With their poignant imagery, my photographs serve as a visual narrative that spans time, offering viewers a glimpse into the evolving relationship between humanity and the rivers that shape our landscape.

I'm particularly excited about the Lower Gallery Artist Panel & Reception scheduled for Monday, February 5, 2024, at 11:30 am. This event provides a unique opportunity for attendees to engage with me and other participating artists, gaining deeper insights into the creative process and the stories behind our artworks.
 
For those interested in exploring the exhibition further, the Stockton University Art Gallery is open for in-person visits. Additionally, the gallery maintains an online presence through its website and social media platforms, allowing a broader audience to connect with the art and discussions surrounding "We Are the River."
 
My participation in "We Are the River" is a personal journey into the narrative of New Jersey's waterways. Through my lens, I invite viewers to contemplate the beauty, challenges, and evolving narratives that define our rivers, ultimately encouraging a commitment to conserving and preserving these vital natural resources. I look forward to sharing this experience with you at the exhibition.
