DITCHIN’: Hay & High Ground

DITCHIN’: Hay & High Ground is a print and projection installation developed by artist and printmaker Heather McMordie and soil scientist and environmental historian Edward Landa. The project examines the long-term impacts (physical and cultural) of early 20th-century mosquito control ditches on the coastal wetlands of the Northeastern United States.

 

Without Title

Without Title suggests the potential of working without a singular designation and beyond boundaries of ownership. The exhibition offers a glimpse of varied practices that explore the qualities, perceptions, contexts, and systems that inform and expand notions of landscape.

Cultivate Project Grant

Cultivate grant winner Inga Adda presents Walk This Way — a self-guided, participatory walk in the woods which encourages play, observation, and appreciation for the natural environment in Montgomery County. While walking along Kingsley Trail in Little Bennett Regional Park, participants will encounter various prompts, and hypothetical questions posted on signs throughout the trail asking them to examine the natural world.

 
 

Cultivate Project Grants support innovative, under-recognized artists or collaborative artist/interdisciplinary teams whose creative work resonates with the mission and vision of Cultivate. The grant supports the realization of an exhibition, project, research, workshop, or other critical events. The grant is made possible through small donations from artists and project supporters who believe in artists sustaining artists.
