This artwork represents decades of environmental intervention and neglect by the sugar industry, which has blatantly misrepresented and manipulated the future and health of the vast Everglades ecosystem. A drawing using molasses as the pigment of the iconic sugar refinery building located in Brooklyn sleeps over a pattern first created by the Seminole tribe and well known for its meaning of disagreement.
