The photo above was taken of Roland and I at my opening of "art and the land"/"Newtok" at The Alaska House Gallery NY.

Today I received word from Trina at the gallery, that the show is hanging indefinitely. So if you haven't seen it, go check it out.
Ed Pilkington from London's The Guardian and I spent three days in Alaska's village of Newtok. We spent our time interviewing locals and documenting the effects of the coastal erosion the village is suffering from. Resulting in ten photos hanging in the Alaska House.
