The 2025 solo exhibition Liquid Resonance features three bodies of work, each with a visual sensibility that forges a dialogue between histories of landscape representation and the language of geometric abstraction. The exhibition’s overarching theme is the question of how we live in relation to water in our built environments. Created with natural resource stewardship and labor solidarity in mind, the work seeks to draw attention to, and to question, the social value systems leading to the wasteful use of the planet’s limited natural resources, as well as the erasure of historical labor struggles within official industrial narratives.

In addition to the three bodies of work represented in this exhibition, a sound piece titled Beneath the Stream by experimental sound artist Robbie Wing (Cherokee Nation) accompanies the video projection and immerses viewers in the gallery space. The series Monongahela Tributes is featured in this online gallery, documentation of work from the Transitional Spaces series as well as the Rivers, Blocks, and Bridges to Newark Bay project can be accessed from the homepage or through the preceding links.

An artist talk with reception to follow will be held on:

Thursday, October 23rd at 5pm, Bloch Hall, Canady Creative Arts Center, West Virginia University

1436 Evansdale Dr, Morgantown, WV 26505

The exhibition is on view through early November.

The exhibition brochure essay Liquid Resonance: Abstraction, Extraction and the Ethics of Water by Dr. Kristen Carter is included at the end of this image gallery.
