Jennifer Stratton is a transdisciplinary artist, journalist, and educator.  Weaving together practices from the ecological sciences, creative arts, social practice, community archives, and trauma-informed care, her work often engages with restorative narratives and relationships between individuals, communities, and the environment.  Jennifer is a graduate of Duke University, where she received a Foreign Language and Area Studies Fellowship in Arabic and was also a Lewis Hine Fellow at the Center for Documentary Studies.  Additionally, she served as an inaugural artist-in-residence at the Duke University Marine Lab, a Scholar at the Center for Environmental Filmmaking, and a creative facilitator for the Rural Opportunity Institute's PhotoVoice program.  In tandem with producing socially engaged art and photojournalism projects, Jennifer collaborates with schools, libraries, research institutions, non-profits, media, and grassroots organizations. Together, they develop collaborative mediamaking and initiatives that foster collective imagination, community building, and public dialogue with an eye towards mobilizing resources and positive social change.  During her Fulbright award in Greece, Jennifer will collaborate and do fieldwork with the Archipelagos Institute of Marine Conservation.   Jennifer will explore inclusive, participatory approaches to visually representing local marine conservation efforts, including the mapping of keystone species such as Posidonia seagrass and Coralligenous reefs.
