Water Rising
For Water Rising, a collaborative work of poetry and watercolor, memoirist Leila Philip ’86 and sculptor Garth Evans each spent a year in a “quiet corner of Connecticut” making art in genres and media that fall outside their usual purviews. The result is a book of nature-themed poems by Philip and abstract watercolors by Evans. Philip is an associate professor of literature and creative writing at the College of the Holy Cross.
