The ocean makes up 71 percent of our planet’s surface. So, how is it that we know more about Mars than the marine environments of Earth? As impenetrable as the deep oceans are to humans, we imperviously live in a black box of international shipping, reducing the ocean to a surface rather than an environmental…

This work is part of the project:
“What do I need to know for the planet to thrive?” This question animates “Signs, Wonders, Blunders,” an installation of 13 signposts, each with three multi-directional signs, located at interesting and suggestive locations on campus. The signposts use book titles and common phrases to create a set of playful proposals for new ways of understanding knowledge production and reception. Many of the book titles are drawn from some of the most influential works of contemporary ecological thought, by thinkers like Donna Haraway, Timothy Morton, Eduardo Kohn, Amitav Ghosh, and Jane Bennet. Others invoke concepts or topics closely associated with climate literacy and advocacy. Yet others allude to contemporary popular culture.
