"While collaborating on an exhibit about water-bottle use, she and a colleague intentionally staged images to reflect diversity; months later they saw an Asian family using the exhibit to refill bottles, an anecdote she cites as proof that representation in park materials matters and can help make outdoor spaces feel more welcoming.
