316 pp. Minimal Illustrations (all b&w). 24 x 16 cm. LC 2021-60919 In English. Hardcover.

Divining Chaos is an intimate personal memoir of unparalleled transparency into the moments in Rahmani's life that shaped her as an artist and activist. Detailing the history that led her to two seminal projects—Ghost Nets, restoring a coastal town dump to flourishing wetlands, and The Blued Trees Symphony, which applied her premises to challenge natural gas pipelines with a novel legal theory about land use—Rahmani shares the decisions that shaped her life’s work and thinking. Her discussions about trigger point theory argue for how to predict, confront, and determine outcomes to the ecological challenges we face today.
Subject Headings: Western Art -- United States -- Post-1945 ; Post-1970 -- (Auto)biography ; Environmental/Land Art -- Women Artists --
