“I don’t even call myself an artist, I’m a visual philosopher,” says Jordan Tierney, who created the cape of discarded plastic bottles for a narrative about a story-teller who wanders through the late 21st Century after climate collapse. (Charles Cohen)

Jordan Tierney creates art from objects collected while hiking and wading through Herring Run, the Jones Falls, Western Run and small, nameless streams. She’s done this for years, thinking deeply about the environment and how humans have altered life on the planet, the whole time becoming intimately familiar with each place.
