Artist Mary Mattingly uses any medium to realize an idea, whether it’s photography, video, fashion or installation. With a specialization in interactive architecture and an interest in nomad culture, human conditioning and sustainable living, Mary worked with a team of volunteer engineers to create the Waterpod, a floating, self-sustaining eco-habitat inhabited by six artists for six months that roamed the NYC waterways as an experiment in potential future living spaces and lifestyles 50-100 years from now. Both an expression of art and life, the Waterpod changes as is inhabitants adapt and its systems renew. We spend the day with its crew to see what it is really like to live on a living sculpture.
