At the intersection of scientific, cultural, and historical perspectives, I have worked with teams of scientists, indigenous tribes, geologists, lawyers, activists, and community members on issues surrounding a mine in Maine/Passamaquoddy land. I was invited by Smithereen Farm in Pembroke, Maine to create large scale artworks using 20,000 rock core samples to support their Maine Clean Water campaign. Close to Canada, five surrounding towns and two reservations depend upon conserving the land for their economy, health, & environment.

"Garon’s work is an innovative and relatively new expansion of context and content which could have stood on its own as art, but Garon has taken on a far deeper task with art that can be amplified by its sources, market, and cultural impact."
