From June 18, 2011- May 2012 the installation River and two of Mags Harries’ glass objects from her Projections series will be on view in the exhibition Ripple Effect: The Art of H2O at The Peabody Essex Museum’s interactive Art & Nature Center.  The exhibition highlights water as a medium for artistic expression and hands-on exploration. Visitors encounter water in its different states– solid, liquid and gas–as they investigate artworks inspired by rivers, geysers, snowflakes, fog and more. Water’s allure to contemporary artists as a creative medium is compelling, especially in light of the unique life-giving properties of this substance we so often take for granted.
