The Arts Center at Duck Creek presents Long Island Sound Map: Cal Fish, Becca Rodriguez, and One Landscape, a four-day immersive installation and interactive program by artists Cal Fish and Becca Rodriguez. This collaboration explores the sonic, ecological, and narrative layers of the East End landscape through sound sculpture, handmade media, community mapping, and collective memory.

Using materials and recordings from sites across East Hampton—including Louse Point, the Walking Dunes, Beachampton, and Sunset Road (formerly Squaw Road)—Fish and Rodriguez create an experiential environment that treats the land as a living archive. The installation includes a participatory sound sculpture, pigment-based paper works, soft sculpture, and a growing speculative map that reflects conversations, oral histories, and sensory fieldwork.

Long Island Sound Map builds on the artists’ archival research with the collective One Landscape and was shaped by their 2024 residency at the Watermill Center. Through workshops, conversations, and performances, the program invites audiences to engage with the landscape as a vessel of story, grief, resilience, and connection—offering an evolving portrait of place grounded in experimentation, collaboration, and care.

Fish and Rodriguez have collaborated since 2021, united by shared interests in sound, ecology, and community-based art. Their work blends sculpture, performance, and archival processes to invite active listening, play, and collective imagining.

Cal Fish is a cross-disciplinary artist from Sea Cliff, NY, now based in Brooklyn. Their work spans sound sculpture, social sculpture, video, and performance, exploring ecology, history, and community through immersive sonic environments. Cal has exhibited widely across North America and Europe and directs Brooklyn’s Living Gallery.

Becca Rodriguez, a multidisciplinary artist and musician from Florida and Georgia, now living in Brooklyn, works in printmaking, papermaking, ceramics, and natural dye research. Their practice centers on watery landscapes, life cycles, and speculative ecosystems. Becca has taught in various media and contributed to conservation research at the Amphibian Foundation.

One Landscape is a collective of artists and landscape professionals exploring ecological, historical, and cultural connections across Long Island’s East End. They engage communities through art, dialogue, and environmental advocacy to foster new ways of understanding and caring for the region’s diverse landscapes.

This project is free and open to the public. A schedule of programs will be posted in July.
