Lurid Ecologies: Ways of Seeing the Bay

07.27.17 - 08.19.17

Geis was paired with the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center to develop an exhibition responding to their work monitoring, conserving and restoring the San Francisco Bay. The collected works reconsider the techniques and apparatus of ecological research to address how scientific and aesthetic framing of environments inform how we look and what goes unseen.

The restoration of native oysters in San Francisco Bay is part of the Living Shorelines Project which is funded by the California State Coastal Conservancy.
