Using map-like images, text, translucent and found materials, I attempt to show that the flow of waters through a watershed and the flow of fluids through the salmon, humans and other species that live in that watershed are of the same source. Embedded in these capes are subtle references to the ownership and management policies that influence all natural systems on the planet today. The cape-maps are metaphors implying the encloaking or embracing of humans within our source of water.
