This Eco-Art project is designed to improve an existing stormwater runoff system, and adds art inspired by the research of the students who use the pond as an outdoor classroom. The McColl Center for Visual Art has granted this Environmental Artist-in-Residency (EAIR) to Deanna Pindell. Trinity Episcopal School is the collaborating school. Charlotte, North Carolina, USA.

Students
I am working with 7th and 8th grade students at Trinity Episcopal School. These boys, and the others, are studying some of the flora and fauna of the pond: small fish, pond snails, lily pads, duckweed, nearby trees and insects and more. It's wonderful that they are able to use the pond as an outdoor classroom, learning to take data and write original reports.
