Founded by Henry G. Sanchez in 2012, the ENGLISH KILLS PROJECT is a bio-art and social practice project proposing community-based strategies to introduce bio-remediation in Newtown Creek, a Superfund site in Brooklyn, NY. The ENGLISH KILLS PROJECT collaborated with the biologist Dr. Sarah Durand (associate professor La Guardia City University of New York), the Newtown Creek Alliance and the North Brooklyn Boat Club. The ENGLISH KILLS PROJECT initiated community driven design workshops, videos, digital media installations, science tool mediated experiences, performances and “explorer’s excursions” along Newtown Creek’s most inaccessible shoreline in East Williamsburg/Bushwick Brooklyn, NY.
