Nest and Branch
My cut paper installation "Twice: Migration" was included in the exhibition "Nest and Branch" curated by Zoe Cohen at the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Art in Philadelphia, PA. I was able to visit and install the work in December 2009 - this is a great place - I particularly like their "On the Trails" series of outdoor exhibitions.

And while in Philadelphia, I was able to visit the Wagner Free Institute of Science http://wagnerfreeinstitute.org and look at some rare books there thanks to my friend Rebecca Gilbert who has a show up in May 2010 at the Nexus Foundation for Today's Art in Philly: http://nexusphiladelphia.org
