15 Years of Reclamation Project, an exhibition by Professor of Practice Xavier Cortada, presents a long-lived ecological art intervention across the state of Florida. Over the last quindecennial, Cortada has engaged scores of Floridians in learning about and addressing the widespread disappearance of native vegetation. The Reclamation Project also lives on today through subsequent iterations in Native Flags, Underwater HOA, Plan(T), FLOR500 and Flower Force, encouraging locals to restore native habitats as coastal cities like Miami plan for a future with rising seas.

If you’d like to visit, you have to schedule a time with Gallery Director Milly Cardoso ([email protected]). Hours are Wednesday – Friday between 10am – 3pm and it is currently only open to UM faculty and students due to COVID-19 restrictions.
