In Memory: Flores 'Flo' McGarrell (MFA 2004)
Flo McGarrell has spent the last year developing a sustainable life specific
to living in Roswell, through sculptural experiments and systems
that encompass scavenging, gardening, composting, cooking and
preserving - all of which are "open sourced" as online and offline
recipes.
Flo's previous body of work consists of architecturally
scaled inflatable sculptures, film, video, and new media projects.
Flo received an MA from the Maryland Institute College of Art and and MFA from the School
of the Art Institute of Chicago, and enjoys teaching in many locales
for a semester at a time, most recently in Jacmel, Haiti. Read more on Flo's website: www.gowithflo.net
