How to Carry Water
When: September 21-December 21, 2024
Where: Stirek Gallery
The exhibition How to Carry Water brings together contemporary visual artists and humanities scholars in shared observations and questions about watersheds. In this expanded conversation, the term “watershed” refers not only to ecological structures, but also to the spatial, temporal and cultural entities that catalyze collectivity and life alongside bodies of water. The exhibition considers how the lenses of history, philosophy and creative practice allow for alternative methods of witnessing the human relationship to water.
Guided tours of the exhibition will begin daily at 2 p.m. during normal gallery hours and 6 p.m. on performance nights.
Curators: Ashley Stull Meyers, Mary Jones and Thomas Hart Horning Chief Curator of Art, Science, and Technology and Kelly Bosworth, Mary Jones and Thomas Hart Horning Assistant Professor of Public History and Ethnomusicology.
