Safe harbor
I’m a seasonal climate migrant. My primary residence in the Sonoran Desert, has become difficult for my body to tolerate the increasing heat and wildfires. I am fortunate to have figured out a way to take summer refuge on the north shore of Lake Superior. These personal landscapes reflect safe moments in migration journeys. Water is harvested from local sources to create these works.
