Conomo is a two-channel non-fiction media installation that presents a diverse portrait of the ancient practice of clamming in the Great Marsh of Massachusetts during a time of rapid ecological change.

 

Conomo incorporates vivid landscapes and microscopic soundscapes, underscored by interviews with Ipswich, Massachusetts clammers, environmentalists, seafood restaurateurs and a New England anthropologist.

 

Foregrounding the viewer’s relationship with nature, Conomo provides a spiritual gateway to important topics regarding conservation and climate action locally.
