Student Awards Jury Comments
The objective of this project was to help people realize and make
connections between natural and cultural systems by focusing on
an abandoned paper mill in Little Falls, Minnesota, which embodies
an intense example of these battling systems. The closing of the
mill has provided a powerful opportunity to dramatically display
and educate people about the inherent connections of the natural
and the cultural. By identifying those connections, this small town
can create a framework and direction to re-define its place in the
changing Minnesota landscape.
