Underwater Intel
“Much of my socially engaged art practice is structured around the idea of slow activism – creating experiential activities that truly pique curiosity, instill a sense of responsibility, and encourage further exploration into critical environmental issues. Education is vital to all advocacy and conservation.
To this end, I worked with my team to curate an online resource hub, the “Underwater Intel,” that introduces an array of topics connected to climate change, provides examples of leaders doing inspirational work, and shares local organizations that are committed to improving the lives of Miamians.”
