The Edward Hopper House Museum is proud to present a major new exhibition by artist, writer, and naturalist James Prosek. Through a stunning series of over twenty new works—including watercolors of native grasses, plein air canvases, and innovative sculptures—Prosek invites visitors to explore how we classify, name, and communicate our place within the natural world.
The exhibition also addresses urgent contemporary themes, including climate change, biodiversity loss, and Indigenous land stewardship. A key highlight features three collaborative works with Penobscot artist Sarah Sockbeson, blending intricately woven ash and sweetgrass baskets with Prosek’s sculpted clay flowers—a metaphorical weaving of diverse cultural perspectives.
