| 2000-2004. An environmental/interactive/insertion art project. Thousands of shaped and engraved pieces of shell were given to 140 participants, who placed these shells on beaches, rivers and waterways around the world for others to find. |
| 2003. An ephemeral art project that took place on public, beaches in the cities of Vancouver and Victoria, and on Saltspring Island BC. Installations were created daily of raked sand or found objects. Every afternoon or evening the work would be washed away as the tide came in. |
| 2000-2001. A year-long project with the Surrey Art Gallery. Numbering every leaf on five trees and writing poetic lines on leaves throughout Bear Creek Park. When the leaves fell, they were collected, washed, dried, pressed and pinned to the walls of the gallery. Gallery visitors were invited to participate. |
