About the artist:
CONSERVATION ARTIST AND MASTER NATURALIST
Born in Canada, 1965, Deborah Mitchell is a Miami Beach based artist whose practice explores man’s extremely precarious relationship with nature (think alligators, pythons, water rights, and flamingoes). The experience based works highlight the beauty of our natural resources while igniting curiosity for our cultural history. A decade of facilitating cultural outreach projects has provided Mitchell with numerous contacts both in the environmental and art communities, enriching her ability to bring to unify the voices of artists (and sometimes scientists) in the diverse communities of South Florida and beyond. Prior to dedicating herself to interpreting our wilderness with a brush, camera and pen, Mitchell was adjunct in a middle school science lab as an extension of her studio practice from 2010-14. A decade of her work is documented in a book entitled Everglades Field Guide: From Reality to Memory, and can be seen in Dr. Laura Ogden’s book Swamplife, University of Minnesota Press.
As the Executive Director of AIRIE, Inc, Mitchell invents creative outreach programs and oversees details related to curating exhibitions surrounding the Artist in Residence program in the Everglades. With support from aides, she organize monthly lectures, performances, film screenings, and workshops by writers, choreographers, musicians and visual artists. She has just been awarded a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) to curate an exhibition in the Everglades with sculptor Robert Chambers. Mitchell added a new twist on her commitment to stewardship this year, when she organized a Think Tank designed to address the responsibilities of cultural leaders in Florida. Twenty-five leaders from Florida Audubon, Archbold Biological Station, Perez Art Museum Miami, Tampa Bay Times, FIU and History Miami attended the fireside retreat in the back country while Mitchell moderated the discussion to initiate best practices within the community. She is fiercely dedicated to promoting improved stewardship through the arts, all while having a great deal of fun.
