Aurora photographer Shoshannah White was recently granted permission to install “Stand of Elms” at the University of Maine in Orono, ME. “Stand of Elms” is an illuminated glass sculpture of photographs that wrap around the cube as one continuous landscape and capture a group of American Elm trees in Castine, Maine.

From Shoshannah, “The University’s campus mall was at one time lined with American Elm trees – almost all of which suffered the blight of Dutch Elm Disease. Dr. Richard Campana (1918 – 2005, professor emeritus at the University of Maine, Orono) was an expert on Dutch Elm Disease and helped develop/administer a vaccine that saved innumerable American Elm trees including more than 300 in the town of Castine, Maine.”
