Connie Michele Morey’s studio practice explores the experience of home as ecological interdependence. Her work is influenced by childhood experiences living rurally off the land and later studies in Visual Art, Philosophy & Ecology. Through site-specific photography, performance and sculpture, her work questions the relationships between primary resource management and displacement. conniemorey.com
