The Great Launch of a Floating Bioremediating Sculpture (FBS) with all this goodness. to help restore health as a byproduct of our lifestyles.  We will anchor it next to the island where it will go up and down with the tide, integrate and disappear.

 

 

Community Involvement

This is possible through many people in relationship to this manifestation. It takes a village of people living lifestyles of bioremediation and symbiosis (LoBS) to unfold this banquet for the river and it’s a friend to the Seal.

Add to the banquet for the Creek.
Join us in adding elements stockpiled in the Residency MoSLoBS Lab/work space.  Add to the table/raft. Ask: “Will the fish & critters, birds, benefit from it in their creek?”
Add something you do
Idea offerings: natural ink, natural dyes, natural colored fibers, certain bio textiles, biochar, fleece, clay, oyster fungi spawn grain, shells, dried medicinal plants, moss, oyster fungi, mollusk, SCOBY skin.  We’ll inspect the offering and integrate the ones that fit in.
On view
Watching Beneficial Ephemera
Sept. to Nov. 2024
Over several months we’ll watch how our beneficial by products from our lifestyles integrate over time and help the creek and Hudson River life.

Sept-Nov. 2024.  4 to dusk. Wednesdays & Thursdays.  Or contact us to see it by appointment ….  unless you have a kayak…

 

The Cornucopia Seal

Why a seal?

There’s a seal living in the Esopus creek that came over from Maine as an orphan (was tagged). This might be a friend for it? most of all help the river‘s health.

Living LoBS : Lifestyles of Bioremediation & Symbiosis.

Artist Statement

I’m making art through intentional lifestyles of bioremediation and symbiosis to create the by product of beneficial succession of air, water, soil & selves for me, others and the environment.

Ultimately to grow our interconnected facia of living LoBS. We are the Ephemeral Piazza – an experimental society that grows from “Microbes to Metropolis”.

We help bring regen culture & permaculture participation in proximity. We must connect, talk, share, collaborate out from the piazzas,  evolve,  interconnect, grow the network so can we live LoBS to create healthy abundance and fairness in life. Then the deeper and deeper supply webs and resource flows we are creating —  are exponential in redesigning everything we do & make to be of beneficial succession of air, water, soil and selves, as earth’s systems work.

So come ! Let’s help grow toward redesigning or making obsolete all products of modern day necessities (currently all toxic) to work for 100% of life.
