“Here, under a pressure which, if loosened, in a fraction of a second would make amorphous tissue of a human being, breathing our own homemade atmosphere, sending a few comforting words chasing up and down a string of hose, here I was privileged to sit and try to crystallize something of value, seeing through inadequate eyes and interpreting by a mind wholly unequal to the task.” – excerpt from “A Quarter Mile Down in the Open Sea” by William Beebe. The essay is part of the catalog of “Exploratory Works: Drawings from the Department of Tropical Research Field Expeditions”. Exhibition is on view Wed-Sun 12-6pm | Thurs 12-8pm.
