This work was conceived during an artist residency in the everglades AIRIE.
The remains of a European explorer’s studio is staged submerged in the swamp in the Everglades. Antique artifacts: a desk, bookshelves, maps, collected shells and skulls, and a globe, all appear semi submerged in the mosquito infested swamp. The fate of explorer is left a mystery. The video and photos were shot by the artist sitting in a canoe in the swamp. In the video a snake slithers across the table.
