Yet, in this exhibition, the word intertidal points to a zone less akin with wilderness and more like the conditions described in Kim Stanley Robinson’s climate fiction New York 2140. In the novel, the entirety of New York City is an intertidal zone, a place where existence has been redefined by a 50 foot permanent surge in sea level rise. Buildings, political structures, social networks, economies and ecologies have all been reconfigured–or re-engineered–to avoid extinction. It is a place where the inorganic, organic, and social have fused simultaneously. For A.S.T, Miami’s current intertidal condition is a calcified cross-cut of real estate speculations, transactions, normalized king tides and the storm pumps that keep streets dry. It is an event horizon, a point of no return, within the cone of climate certainty. was commissioned by curator Natalia Zuluaga with ArtCenter South Florida to create a multi-disciplinary experience of what speculative urbanism may feel like in the age of sea level rise.

Featuring newly commissioned video, audio script, wall drawings, and architectural interventions, Intertidal reads like a scrambled series of messages from a not so distant future. The result is a proposal that is simultaneously in three temporalities: dealing, imagining, and planning in the present based on a future that already contends with the lived effects of our mistakes from the past. While the exhibition confronts what often feels like an inevitable cataclysmic event, it does not propose an apocalyptic vision of the future or a collapse of possibilities in facing it. Instead, the sounds, images, and environment created by A.S.T. posit Miami and its distinct position between swamp and sea as a leader in getting submerged, and as such proposes the city could be a model for how best to proceed. Intertidal was accompanied by a series of public programs including Conversation: The Contemporary Coast, a discussion with A.S.T.

Oolite Arts, founded 36 years ago, helps Miami-based artists by providing them with free studio space, exhibition opportunities and financial assistance. In his work, he explores his personal history within his background and familial experiences. 'No two designs of Barozzi Veigas are alike, said Dennis Scholl, president and chief executive of Oolite Arts. They are always responsive to the areas where they are located. It is important for Fleuridor to understand his family by dissecting his own memories and family narratives through the labor of his art process. Physically and digitally working with materials that reference Fleuridor's family helps him understand their past in Haiti and present lives within the Haitian community in Miami where he grew up. These topics are explored through mediums such as painting, performance, quilting and collage. Fleuridor has completed artist residencies such as Vermont Studio Center (VT) and the Oxbow Artist Residency (MI) and is currently attending Oolite Artist Residency in Miami, FL. He has exhibited his works in various exhibitions including Idiom and Taxonomies at Oolite Arts in Miami Fl, In the Hallway in Alternate Roots, We Are One at Creative Alliance in Baltimore, MD and B_19 (Best of Baltimore 2019) at Baltimore City Hall. Oolite Restaurant & Bar is a restaurant located in Miami Beach. Fleuridor received the Redbull Artist Grant Miami (2020) and is a recipient of the Oolite Arts Ellies Awards 2020 for his project Being Held, a project to create a public mural in Miami that counters uncertain times by focusing on people, families and their love for each other.
