Flux Projects is a public art initiative that is deeply committed to the subject of water. The organization’s multi-year project “FLOW” has enlisted artists to bring Atlantans into conversation about our water sources, water management and watershed habitats.
A new “FLOW” installation project, “Atlanta to the Atlantic,” kicked off in May, in partnership with the South River Watershed Alliance. The project involves three temporary art installations by Rachel Parish and Sarah Cameron Sunde that will appear in three Atlanta neighborhoods in fall 2024, placed strategically around tributaries of the South River inside the city.
The artists kicked off their project with an epic journey exploring the South River, hopping into kayaks at Brown Mill Golf Course in South Atlanta and then paddling downstream hundreds of miles all the way to the Atlantic Ocean, livestreaming the entire process.
Parish and Sunde joined “City Lights with Lois Reitzes” to discuss the critically endangered South River and their project with FLUX to bring awareness to water issues across the state.
