Conceived by artist Mary Miss, FLOW: Can You See the River? is a city-wide public art project that reveals how ordinary activities are connected to the history, ecology, origin and potential of the White River water system. From http://www.imamuseum.org/visit/100acres/artworks-projects/flow See also:
The project appears along a six-mile stretch of the river, with stopping points located on the grounds of the Indianapolis Museum of Art, in The Virginia B. Fairbanks Art & Nature Park: 100 Acres, and along the Central Canal at Butler University and continuing to White River State Park downtown. Mirror markers and oversized red map pins identify important features of the watershed, including wetlands, floodplains, combined sewer outfalls and pollution. In 100 Acres, red tree bands mark the level of what was once referred to as a 100-year flood, or what hydrologists consider a flood that has a 1 percent chance of happening in any year.
FLOW: Can You See the River? was commissioned by the Indianapolis Museum of Art, with concurrent activities facilitated by EcoArts Connections and more than 20 leading Indianapolis arts, science, environment, and municipal organizations and agencies. A series of activities and easily accessible web- and phone-based technologies allow you to experience how water affects your everyday life.
