Other Projects in 2011:

During the Fall of 2011 I traveled to Antarctica to work with Cell Biologist Dr. Samuel Bowser and his research team as “field assistant and art/science liaison”. The focus of Dr. Bowser’s work is the single-celled organisms known as Foraminifera. We conducted studies from a remote field camp at Explorers Cove, situated at the base of the Taylor Valley, in the Dry Valleys, west of McMurdo Station in Antarctica (pictured above).
