CONTEMPORARY ART REVIEW
Thanks a lot for your time and for sharing your thoughts , Deanna . Finally , would you like to tell us something about your future projects ? How do you see your work evolving ?
I am really excited about my recent projects and ongoing explorations : basing my research and development of thematic subjects and new works on direct , more immersive , physical investigation of natural environments . In the past year , I participated in expeditions on a canal in Brooklyn , New York , and on a river in southern Mexico . Working from my photographs of the canal journey , I made two site-specific drawing installations for a recent exhibition ( at Trestle Projects , in the Gowanus neighborhood of Brooklyn ) that highlighted the effects of corrosion and the persistence of plant life in what is still a very toxic ecosystem , due to the canal ’ s legacy of heavy industry . I am currently in the process of planning a new body of work based on the information and images gathered during and inspired by the Mexico journey . The materials — including drawings , photographs , and videos — record aspects of my experience of that waterway ; they have led to the formulation of a project that will reflect concepts and images of different types of waves , including those of water and sound .
