St. George: Ebb and Flow
St. George: Ebb and Flow is my tribute to the residents of St. George, a rural community on the Bay of Fundy. The age-old fishing pursuits of sardines and lobster, and the newer salmon farming industry, rapidly reinvent themselves to keep pace with climate change and global demands.
The short maritime summers with long evenings are cherished as they have been for generations. Light bends, time slows, families and friends gather around bonfires as the sun sets, and the stars alight. These are the moments between the memories that feel iconic to the maritime experience: the deep connection to the natural world, the rhythmic dance of the tides, and the mesmerizing, shifting beauty.
I extend my deepest gratitude to the residents of St. George for opening your doors and sharing your stories. You made it possible for me to be a chronicler of the ebb and flow of your hometown.
