In the performative workshop at Interface, The Microecologies of the Inagh Valley, I invited participants to join me in a series of kick samples in local waterways, Owen Na Baunoge and Cloonederowen 010 . Working with local marine ecologist Mary Louise Heffernan, I entered the water with waders and a net, disturbing the rocky bottom under foot to gather small marine and invertebrate life. Using the Local Authorities Water Programme’s (LAWPRO) citizen science model,  we determined the health of these freshwater ecosystems by identifying and counting specific species. Back in a makeshift laboratory we used petri dishes, a stereo microscope, and camera to make photo microscopic images. We then printed and collaged the images to co-create an underwater-world installation that sought to de-center the human perspective.
