They are historians, diplomats, ecologists, investigators, emissaries and art activists. Their work involves proposing solutions and involves not only public discussion, but extensive mapping and documentation of these proposals in an art context.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>Past projects have focused on watershed restoration, urban renewal, agriculture and forestry issues among others. The Harrisons\u2019 visionary projects have often led to changes in governmental policy and have expanded dialogue around previously unexplored issues leading to practical implementations throughout the United States and Europe.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yAqNID_bLSA\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6702\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6702\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6702 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/gardens2.png?resize=640%2C311&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"311\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/gardens2.png?resize=1024%2C498&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/gardens2.png?resize=300%2C146&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/gardens2.png?resize=768%2C373&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/gardens2.png?resize=696%2C338&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/gardens2.png?resize=1068%2C519&amp;ssl=1 1068w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/gardens2.png?resize=864%2C420&amp;ssl=1 864w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/gardens2.png?w=1819&amp;ssl=1 1819w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/gardens2.png?w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6702\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;The Garden of Hot Winds and Warm Rains, 1995.
