In collaboration with Monica Lamela and Shilpa Mevada.
In the spirit of the nomadic Numu (Northern Paiute) and Newe (Western Shoshone) communities, we come as guests to this land. We conceive water as the gravitational force around which human interventions are organized into an open exchange system.
The interventions – Sediment, Harvest, Cultivate, Regenerate – work as catalyzers and each one has a direct relationship to the Food, Water and Zero Waste support systems. The interventions penetrate the surface layer to heal the land using natural elements and bringing back ancestral knowledge.
Spontaneous situations—celebrating, sharing, collecting, creating, contemplating, learning, meeting, playing, restoring and many other living experiences—result from the relationship between food, water and zero waste support systems and from the interaction between interventions and natural elements.
