Projects > Beautiful Possibility Project / 2010-2013

Infusions made while living with the last three living Shakers at the Sabbathday Lake Community in New Glouchester, ME.

The shakers have a historic, still active herb business and Brother Arnold helped identify native foraged species of plants, fruits and trees to make separate infusions. All were combined in the communal drinking vessel for a talk and site-specific Elixir tasting at Space Gallery, where the exhibition was installed. These infusions were then added to the Beautiful Possibility Touring Elixir.

At a separate event, local amateur historians were invited to give short talks about local hidden histories in Maine.
