Mapping Meaning & The Salish Sea

ByTrudi Lynn Smith

Next week, artist Krista Caballero and writer/scientist Sylvia Torti, from the initiative Mapping Meaning, will be joining Ryan Hilperts, from the Redfish School of Change, and myself, for a kayaking trip in the Salish Sea. While planning the trip, I’ve been reflecting on the inspiring, experimental, interdisciplinary climate I’ve been a part of since 2012, when I first joined with Mapping Meaning artists, scientists and scholars at a field station in Capitol Reef National Park in Utah, USA with my Portable Camera Obscura.

Spring and summer marks the time when Lynda Gammon and I get to head back into 562 Fisgard to work on our project. This summer I am looking forward to 16×20 photographs using the camera we built and had help building, more experiments with peeling the wall, inviting the general public, nearby artists and friends to partake in looking at the wall through the camera, and high resolution digital video.
