Water, Water everywhere
Water surrounds in south louisiana. bayous, rivers, swamps, and lakes physically and spiritually shape our community and culture.
Water is both life and death down here. the levees, pumping stations, and disappearing land are all reminders of our eternal war with Water.
for 300 years we have employed world-class engineering marvels in an attempt to bend the Water to our will. but as hurricanes and rising seas have shown-
the Water remains in control.
i've been casually photographing south louisiana for 15 years, and now i'm considering a documentary.
how is our coastline changing? is there anything we can do to stop it?
who is most impacted by rising seas and aging infrastructure? how can we learn from them?
to explore water is an act of both science and soul.
