Recent explorations undertaken while on sabbatical from teaching
Dr. JeanMarie Hartman
Sabbatical
- a time of reflection
- a time of re-grouping
- a time for quiet contemplation
- a time for manic productivity
University of Akron group called Syanpse
Worked out of the Bath Nature Preserve

Began with a study of moving water at Bath - how did the streams flow? What did they do? What were they like?
Looked at environmental art - Ed Burtynsky, Chris Jordan, Natalie Jeremijenko, Andy Golsdworthy
Working with the University of Akron, in Ohio, they turned the Folk Hall parking lot into a 2 day watershed event
Erosion and Fractures
Adding water to clay
Resulting in the Ground Water exhibition
Landforms and tiles
Finding the way through
How can we make this happen more often? How can we foster more of these relationships?
