>AQUA-CULTURE, a group exhibition curated by Henry G. Sanchez featuring
>Zach Moser and Eric Leshinsky of Shrimp Boat Projects, Brenda Perry,
>Irene J. Klaver and Henry G. Sanchez, showcases artist initiated
>projects that contribute to the widening discussion of the issues
>surrounding the uses, management and engagements with water sources,
>water ways and water bodies. The participants of this exhibition
>produce work by employing interdisciplinary practices and
>participatory forms of social engagement and collaboration with a
>philosophical inquiry into exploring an inter-relationship with a more
>aquatic-centric culture. By combining non-art related expertise with
>the expertise of the artist, the exhibition allows viewers to reframe,
>experience and re-imagine complicated local and global water issues.
