GOING WITH THE FLOW: ART, ACTIONS, AND WESTERN WATERS is a group exhibition exploring the vital role of water in the arid Southwest. No other element is more crucial to life on Earth, and as the title of this exhibition suggests, we must follow its lead and heed its warnings. Water, like art, takes many forms: it changes and flows in reaction to its environment; it finds ways to keep moving, recovering, and recharging above and below the land. As stewards of this land, we can benefit from the example water sets by emulating its adaptability. By doing so, we might discover new paths of understanding and repair as we navigate the challenges of climate change.

Exhibiting artists Paula Castillo, Basia Irland, Sharon Stewart, collaborators on There Must Be Other Names for the River (Marisa DeMarco, Dylan McLaughlin, Jessica Zeglin), and collective M12Studio (Richard Saxton, Margo Handwerker, Trent Segura) present multidisciplinary projects both inside and outside SITE SANTA FE, including temporary site-specific artworks, sound, installation, performance, and momentary actions that engage the communities of Santa Fe and its surrounding regions.
