DM Witman: Index
About the Show
DM Witman is a trandisciplinary artist working with photographic materials. Her research and creative practice are deeply rooted within the realm of the effects of man on this world.
With Index, Witman draws upon her past experiences as a field biologist to create a record of the flora of a small patch of intertidal marsh of the St. George River where Witman lives and works. Reminiscent of herbarium records, the flora are memorialized and serve as a baseline against the impending change of increasing temperatures and rising waters.
