PAPA PROJECTS |  Press Release
In this new project, cross-disciplinary artist Briar Marsh Pine examines the history of mineral extraction on Minnesota’s Iron Range. Black Beach, a fine rock beach formed from the mining runoff from the Northshore Mining Co., becomes both backdrop and material source for their latest works. By layering histories, artistic disciplines, and natural materials Marsh Pine unearths new contexts for the growing demand for iron in Minnesota and beyond.
