Title

Nature Installation

Description

Marissa Siegel's work draws inspiration from the beauty and abundance of nature and how we, as humans, are a part of it. In this room-sized installation, Siegel incorporated soil and flowers, logs, wall-hangings, audio and video of the Iowa woods to create a space of calm and repose that pays tribute to the natural world. In addition, she invited performer-participants to design their own costumes, which developed into fanciful attire, armor for woodland warriors.
