Baie St. Marie Residency, Nova Scotia

Joggins Fossil Cliffs

This summer I was awarded a residency in Nova Scotia, Canada. My co-resident Larissa Mellor and I applied together to research the coastal geology of the region, specifically the sea stacks, and to make work adjacent to each other at the Baie St. Marie Jenny Family Compound where we stayed. Many thanks to Maine College of Art and the Jenny Family for making this incredible time possible.
