Tucson Festival of Books

Heather Green


Heather Green is an visual artist, educator and associate professor of Book Arts at the Herberger Institute School of Art at Arizona State University. Her research examines encounters on a small headland in the Gulf of California in Sonora, Mexico.  Whether documenting the movements of the tide, interviewing fishermen, collaborating with scientists, or combing the shoreline, she aims to evoke a nuanced exactitude of place. Whether turning a handle to view a moving image or taking away a hand-printed card, she invites the audience to engage visually and haptically.
