Channels: A Collaborative Paper & Video Installation
In the past, the Mississippi River has changed and moved, altering its course on its path to emptying the Gulf of Mexico. These changing channels and Louisiana’s geomorphology are the inspiration for this installation of handmade paper, in not only how it shapes the gallery space and the viewer’s experience of it, but in the imagery and paper pulp used.
