Artist, Master Naturalist, Land Steward, Environmental Educator, and community wellness advocate, Martina Patterson, also known as mars, has earned multiple certifications in ethnohorticultural practices such as plant pathology and physiology, cultural medicinal herbal wellness, traditional cultural plant usage, and ecological restoration. Examples of mars’ leadership as an Ecological Rematriationist can be seen throughout Milwaukee’s NorthWest side in pockets of urban Woodlands, Mesic Prairies, and Oak Savanna’s. The Madison Museum of Contemporary Art, the Historic Woolen Mill Gallery, the Brooks Stevens Gallery, Terry McCormick Contemporary Fine and Folk Art Gallery, and 5 Points Art Gallery and Studios have exhibited mars’ mixed media weavings, wearable art, and eco-soft-sculptures. Ceramic tile murals that were created under the leadership of artists and mentors Melanie Tallmadge-Sainz and Muneer Bahauddeen can be viewed throughout Wisconsin.
