The History of Sweetwater Branch Creek

Within this project, I worked with graphically depicting the history of Sweetwater Branch Creek Park in Gainesville, FL and how that history has shaped the park’s sense of place through photomontages and on-site sketches.

I wanted to pay homage to the preservative roots of the park and the people that were honored at the park for their life’s work of making Gainesville a green city.

As I discovered the racial disparity that has characterized the surrounding area of the park, I knew that it would be crucial to recognize how this history has shaped the park’s identity.
