Mission
Our mission is to create fine art living spaces that integrate art, architecture, and nature by designing and building habitats that engage us with the environment. Through our collective, we look to support other independent artists and give them a new space to promote their work.
Founders
Ali Della Bitta and Drew Goerlitz met in 2002 while attending a sculpture park residency in Minnesota. They first collaborated on a public art project in Silver Springs, MD that was focused on repairing the ecosystem of a community park. The concept of artwork promoting the natural ecosystem and surrounding environment has become a common thread over the last 20 years of their collaborative work.
