Holsapple has participated in leadership and environmental based podcasts and showcased a landmark live painting event at Budman Studio, WNDW, Venice California. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dodd released an innovative NFT series entitled Seeds To Smoke in 2022. Dodd&#8217;s works will be showcased when the US Senate convenes later this year during<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/ostp\/news-updates\/2023\/06\/09\/white-house-office-of-science-and-technology-policy-announces-national-climate-assessment-art-submission-award-winners\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NCA5<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> conferences decide on climate policies.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">About the art installation<a href=\"https:\/\/morskelivade.com\/en\/presented-art-installation-see-glass-again\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SEE GRASS AGAIN<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On September 8th, Holsapple became the eleventh resident of Lon\u010dari, where he is currently working on an art installation. For its creation, he is using glass collected during two volunteer eco-cleaning actions in the canyon of the River Bijela in 2020. and 2022. year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His work was chosen from a total of 46 applications that arrived from several countries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The collected glass waste will be used by Holsapple to create a drywall with a mosaic of eels in the shape of a ring that will form a space for sitting, hanging out or talking. His stay at OPG Pueblo Escondido through the residency &#8220;Art for the Environment and Nature&#8221; will be accompanied by public events and workshops in collaboration with other associations and institutions that will be announced in time. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dodd&#8217;s proposal represents the transformation of glass waste into an observation deck, a landmark in the landscape, and a gathering place with an artistic intervention. This intervention also serves a practical function as a resting area in the form of a bench.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The inspiration for the creation of the circular form comes from ancient historical sources (snake, dragon, lizard), and the proposal emphasizes cyclic energy and symbolic spiritual regeneration, and in this case incorporated into an authentic local context through a circular shape with an illustration of an eel fish species, characteristic of the area Three Seas.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">European eel fish is a favorite animal among the locals, who place it into their wells to clean the water.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The locals used to take it in the rainy seasons when it comes out of the sea and moves on the wet grass. They would put it in the rain water tanks to protect their water by eating the pests that would appear in the collected rainwater. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The creation of an art installation is part of the project \u201e#itIsNotTooLate \u2013 Seagrass beds: Zostera marina, Zostera noltei and Cymodocea nodosa, their significance for fish life and the overall ecosystem of the three seas area\u201c. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The project was approved through the Three Seas FLAG competition under Measure 2.1. Support for the evaluation, protection and promotion of the natural resource base \u2013 rivers, seas and coasts\u201d in order to implement activities removal of waste\/pollution located in the watershed, mapping the state of seagrass surfaces and making people aware of their footprint on natural resources with the aim of valorizing and protecting seagrass as a source of marine life and with the aim of raising the quality of life of the fish stock.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/morskelivade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_21-1024x160.png\" alt=\"\"><\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-44835dd elementor-section-content-middle elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"44835dd\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[],&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-cef463a\" data-id=\"cef463a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-cfa7108\" data-id=\"cfa7108\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b9c62b7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b9c62b7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b style=\"font-weight: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">The event #itIsNotTooLate River Bijela 2023, taking place from September 16th to October 10th, is supported by the Office for Human Rights and the Rights of National Minorities of the Government of the Republic of Croatia.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a1e20fa\" data-id=\"a1e20fa\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4e7cfd7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4e7cfd7\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5c9c03a\" data-id=\"5c9c03a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-911a1fd elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"911a1fd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*!
