My submission to Ecotones and Transition Zones details my current investigations on challenges and reclamation of local geography of New York State’s Hudson River Valley. Through various treks, raking the riverbanks and railways of the historic river, I have accumulated a vast collection of cast offs from nature and artifacts of the Industrial Revolution. My accumulations are then considered, arranged and displayed. The videotaped process then migrates to a documentation of digital prints based on the video stills that reveal the process and patterning of my research.
