Ecoventions in Cincinnati




        There are other ecovention projects installed in the area. Each one informs us about nature and in their simplistic complexity the environmental problems we face around the world.

In the CAC

        The Center for Land Use Interpretation photographed 22 Ohio-based man-made landforms they deemed “unusual and exemplary.”

        Reiko Goto's book made from Japanese Bush Honeysuckle demonstrates the symbiotic relationship between native and non-native plants.

        Brandon Ballengee's experiment to test the flatworm's role in creating malformed frogs in Ohio ponds is being broadcast live via the Internet.

Mercantile Arcade (outside the CAC)

        Buster Simpson's sculpture above the museum's entrance cleans the HVAC water before it enters the sewer.

        Laurie Lundquist's “Green Screen” absorbs airborne pollutants and freshens the air.

        Georg Dietzler's installation demonstrates how oyster mushrooms can be grown to clean PCBs from contaminated soil.

Solway Park, 4530 Spring Grove Ave. (To come in two years)

        Jackie Brookner is designing a biosculpture to be sited in the park.

Todd Pond, Swaim Park, corner of Cooper and Zig Zag roads, Montgomery

Powel-Crosley Lake, Rowe Wood 4949 Tealtown Road, Milford

        Lynne Hull's floating islands are placed on the pond and lake to provide habitat for turtles, waterfowl, snakes, fish and frogs, but to discourage ducks.

Mill Creek Elmwood Place (To come: still awaiting permit)

        Lynne Hull's water kite cleans the creek as it bobs.
