Methods and Materials: Ecological Art in Practice - Opening Reception and Special Programs

Daniel McCormick has practiced ecological art for 25 years, installing sculptural works in damaged natural environments to effect positive ecological change. These ephemeral artworks of organic materials are used as silt traps and erosion control weavings, and are intended to evolve and recede from view over time. In this rare solo exhibition, McCormick brings the methods and materials of his outdoor works inside. The show features installations of restoration materials, sculptures made with techniques he uses in the field, and preparatory drawings for various projects.
