Citizen Artist™ is a participatory science research platform, employs Art-Based Perceptual Ecology (ABPE) research methodologies to study ecological systems change. With a focus on divergent ways of knowing, the non-conventional and integrative research methods (ABPE) are grounded in multimodal knowledge systems and sensory-based learning ...

About -- Dr. Lee Ann Woolery

With a focus on divergent ways of knowing, Dr. Lee Ann Woolery pioneered Art-Based Perceptual Ecology (ABPE), a transdisciplinary approach to field-based ecological research.

Dr. Woolery holds a Ph.D. in Environmental Studies from Antioch University New England. Her field study in Desert Ecology was conducted in the Sonoran Desert in both Arizona and Mexico. Dr. Woolery’s dissertation: Art-based perceptual ecology as a way of knowing the language of place....

Dr. Woolery: "My work is grounded in a desire to find ways that people can come to know the changes in our environment that do not solely rely on the Western scientific paradigm but collaborate in tandem with conventional science. Art and science can complement one another in the service of biospheric change and environmental sustainability through a pluralistic discourse, which may generate new questions and make available new solutions to environmental issues." (2002).

Dr. Woolery is Associate Editor on the editorial board for the The Ecological Society of America's (ESA) for the international journal, Earth Stewardship.

The Earth Stewardship Journal serves as a forum for the cultural exchange of diverse knowledge systems and collective understanding on how we can protect our planet.

The Earth Stewardship Journal provides a conceptual/operational framework for linking diverse knowledge systems (research) and action at multiple scales. It implies a paradigm shift that links facts and values, multiple forms of ecological knowledge and practices, and broadens the mission of the ecological sciences.

GARY SNYDER, in his book "The Practice of the Wild", talks about riding in a pickup truck in Australia with an aborigine. As they were traveling along, the man was telling stories at an 'amazing pace', too fast for them to be told properly.

Snyder wonders why the hyperactive story-telling. He finally discovers that important knowledge of the man's tribe is recited as the tribe moves along in the bush. Each feature of the landscape relates to a specific story or part of a story.

At the speed of a moving pickup, of course, the stories had to be told faster...

Moral of today's story -- Practice earth art appropriately... slow, faster, and very fast.

"Our posturings, our imagined self-importance,

the delusion that we may have some privileged position,

are challenged by this point of pale light.

Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark ....

There is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.

This distant image of our tiny world...

underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another,

and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've got."

~ In memory of Carl Sagan
