Courtney M. Leonard’s BREACH installation series is an annual visual logbook that explores and documents environmental impact and disparate human consequences of the relationship with water through the many definitions of the word, BREACH. In BREACH: LOGBOOK 23 | CARRIER, Leonard asks, “What is your first memory of water?” and explores the human relationship with vessels or carriers while also being vessels or carriers. She endeavors to offer the culturally and historically significant stories surrounding Minnesota’s waterways and their layers of meaning to local Indigenous communities.
