GreenShot: Environmental Awareness Through Art

Featuring work by: Traci Browning, Julie Marateck

Exhibition: Fri, Oct 16 to Mon, Nov 30 2009

Work By Julie Marateck: Over a two week period, I drove from California to Wyoming, crossing through Oregon, Washington, Montana and Idaho. The “Road Trip” is as an American tradition that symbolizes youth and adventure. I had so many artists and dreamers stuck in my mind during the journey, such as Jack Kerouac and Christopher McCandless from Into The Wild. It is the ultimate test of the journey being greater than the destination. My camera was the perfect companion.

GreenShot is a special photography series inspired by the call to action to live a Green life. It’s what I like to call “Eco-tography.” Nine stunning photographs inspired by this series. Each photograph has been printed in the highest quality on a bigger-than-life 30X50 canvas. We each must do our part to preserve the planet. Environmental awareness through Art. The ultimate Win/Win.

GreenShot: Environmental Awareness Through Art

Featuring work by: Traci Browning, Julie Marateck

Exhibition: Fri, Oct 16 to Mon, Nov 30 2009

Work by Traci Browning: Much of my life has been spent in nature--walking the beach, swimming the ocean, horseback rides deep into the woods, and countless hikes in national parks across the entire US. The call of the outdoors has taken me on the road for six months of the last two years. One constant has always been a camera to document my adventures and share them with others. The intention of my work is first to preserve an image of a real place before it is ravaged with global warming and misuse, and second, to share these places with people that aren't aware of them yet. With GreenShot we are hoping to raise awareness and the desire to change our daily habits to lessen the impact on these precious places.
