In July 2024, I had the privilege of joining wilderness managers in the Nellie Juan-College Fiord Wilderness Study Area. Here the landscape is anything but still and quiet. All around us, change was occurring at different rates, whether over a millennia or a minute, from the slow-mo flow of glacial rivers of ice to rapid calving events rumbling through the fiords. It was both humbling and inspiring to be a visitor in this extreme environment and to witness the life that has carved out niches within this epic convergence of ice, earth, and ocean. My time here allowed for reflection on resilience in the face of change. This gift of immersion in such a magical landscape will fuel my creative endeavors for years to come.  Click here to learn more. 

I had the opportunity to present on this incredible experience at the 2026 Prince William Sound Stewardship Symposium–link to that presentation coming soon! Below are a collection of photos from my time in the sound, the creative process behind the multi-block print I made, and the community extension workshop I hosted in Bishop, California exploring the relationship between wilderness and art.
