Waterworld
Our relationship to water
is deep, especially in the Pacific Northwest being blanketed by it from the sky
above us and surrounded by the Sound, rivers, and lakes. It dictates how we travel or where it is most
desirable to live. Water is essential to
our bodies and our survival. We fish and
harvest it. Water is a powerful force of nature. We gravitate to water for pleasure and
serenity. It cleanses and is used in ritual
purification practices, but then we desecrate it by polluting our environment
or our bodies with fluoride that is added to the drinking supply.
Seeking work relating to
water with broad references to water:
life in, among, around water; water based techniques, water patterns and
symbols, statements on water in our environment.
