2017

Since 2015 I've been writing an ongoing series of essays for National Geographic's Water Currents blog. The water essays invite the reader to see from the perspective of various rivers around the world and to contemplate our streams and rivers as subjects, not objects. In the spring of 2017, as part of the Decolonizing Nature exhibition at 516 Arts gallery in Albuquerque, New Mexico, I made audio recordings of excerpts from three of the water essays related to indigenous river issues.
