 “Messages from the Marsh’’ (Part 5, video still 10, archival exhibition pigment print (Platine)), by Amy Kaczur in her joint show “The Great Muse —Three Artists Working With the Great Muse,’’ at Kingston Gallery, Boston, through July 27.

The gallery says that the show, with Kaczur, Resa Blatman and Max Schenk, is either “inspired by or touches on the beauty and ecological significance of salt marshes.’’

Treasure trove of life.

“Messages From the Marsh” (video still), by Amy Kaczur, in her show at Kingston Gallery, Boston, through Feb. 26.

Her Web site says:

“Kaczur’s work is grounded in environmental concerns, community and language. Her latest projects are fueled by a sense of urgency related to water issues, specifically coastal flood zones and rising sea levels. She grew up outside Cleveland, with family ties working in farming, food industry, mills, and coal mines in rural southern Ohio to the edges of Appalachia. Those roots impacted her experience of landscape and environmental issues such as pollution and climate change, and the multilayered struggles between land use and conservation. Along with examining these issues in her art practice, she works at Massachusetts Institute of Technology as the group administrator for two research labs focused on air and water pollution, climate change, and clean energy development and storage. She continuously develops her art practice, supported by relentless research, discovery by experiment, and the pleasure of inquisitive searching.’’
