The ground beneath our feet is literally slipping away. This artwork responds accordingly. Sound pieces, installation, sculpture, and poetry suggest recombinations, contortions, and orientations toward a new hybrid, symbiotic and sympathetic relationship with nature. Taking inspiration from the forest\u2019s ability to regenerate itself over time, and the ability of the natural world to adapt under challenging conditions, how can we synchronize our existence with these restorative processes as we follow the path that lies before us? How do we live life in the balance?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Art Ramble<\/strong>\u00a0is an annual, temporary exhibition in the Hapgood Wright Town Forest in Concord, MA, a collaboration of The Umbrella Art Center and\u00a0Concord\u2019s Division of Natural Resources (CDNR). Following\u00a0Leave No Trace principles, regional artists\u00a0create site-specific artworks promoting appreciation of nature, installed along Fairyland Pond and parts of the historic Emerson-Thoreau Amble connecting Concord Center to Walden Pond.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Participating Artists<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Paul Angiolillo<\/li>\n<li>Dave Ardito<\/li>\n<li>BARD<\/li>\n<li>Laurie Bogdan<\/li>\n<li>Bill Cohn<\/li>\n<li>Robert Greene<\/li>\n<li>Carolyn Enz Hack<\/li>\n<li>Belen Millan<\/li>\n<li>Wanda Strukus<\/li>\n<li>J.D.
