Announcing the new publication *Ecoart in Action, N.V. Publications, includes the chapter Chance Encounter: Art, Life, and Activism in open air studio Shinnecock Hills spacetime
How do we educate those who feel an urgency to address our environmental and social challenges? What ethical concerns do art-makers face who are committed to a deep green agenda? How can we refocus education to emphasize integrative thinking and inspire hope? What role might art play in actualizing environmental resilience? Compiled from 67 members of the Ecoart Network, a group of more than 200 internationally established practitioners, Ecoart in Action stands as a field guide offering practical solutions to critical environmental challenges. Organized into three sections — Activities, Case Studies, and Provocations—each contribution provides models for ecoart practice that are adaptable for use within a variety of classrooms, communities, and contexts.

The appearance of a white rooster is believed by many as a sign of coming good fortune, a reason they are often found by an entrance….
Sandrow’s story of her Chance Encounter with a white Padovana Cockerel while on a walk in the woods near her home/ studio in the Shinnecock Hills of Long Island. Shinnecock led her to the property known as Gissa Bu, which was later successfully acquired by The Town of Southampton for The Community Preservation Fund.
Featured in the PS1/MoMA exhibition curated by Alanna Heiss in 2006; learn how this installation was also the mechanism for supporting an important and successful preservation project (Gissa Bu) in the Shinnecock Hills; one of the many important outcomes of this fortuitous meeting during which the cockerel, later named Shinnecock for the hills where they met, found a home and a flock, in Sandrow’s living art installation. Truly a remarkable encounter.
