Meier’s work, funded by an Institute on the Environment grant, is inspired by her life on the shores of Lake Superior and by Jonathan Raban’s book, Passage to Juneau: A Sea and its Meanings. Meier shares her own experience of finding her way along the lake., “Two decades since first coming to the North Shore of Lake Superior in Minnesota, I am starting to make work about this place. I can live here because of the vast horizon of Lake Superior, but it is completely different than the spaciousness of the Plains, where I am from. I cannot walk into that openness. Here I always stand on an edge-line. Here I am learning the language of the currents and surface disruptions of water and the density and lines of ancient rock. I am finding my way.”
