This woven tapestry uses land cover data from the Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge to show changes in the salt marsh over a 10-year period, which includes the events of Hurricane Sandy and a large-scale restoration project.

The types of stitches, color and texture of yarns, and natural materials represent each type of land cover as well as the way the marsh is shaped, with sandy barriers, snaking bits of water, and patches of high marsh coming into the tree line. An explosion of sand, caused by hurricane waves, is followed by changes in the water line and vegetation coverage over time. Large mud flats opened up by restoration efforts then give way to spartina marsh grass, shown by proportions and material choices.
