16 juni, 1637

completed 6.16.2015, collage, hand-drawing  18” w, 30”h

This work was made while in an artist residency on Governor’s Island. Both the journey on the South Street Ferry to Governors Island and imaginative time travel back to the Dutch occupation are depicted. As the artist later found out, the date she finished this (June 16) is the same date when, in 1637, the Manhatta Indians sold the island to the Dutch.
