In the first image of the incredibly great documentary All That Breathes, the camera slowly takes us into the rain-soaked, dirty, unpaved streets of Delhi, India, where, by the end of the shot, we’ve gone from disgust to delight—the ugly streets are actually teeming with animal life! We are now ready to join brothers Nadeem and Saud, who have made it their mission in life to care for the skies' black kites, majestic birds of prey essential to Delhi’s ecosystem, who have been dropping from those skies at alarming rates. What they do is a human-made miracle—and so is this film, which makes us truly see nature, human beings, and the world differently.

What does it mean to be part of a community? How can we forge meaningful connections with each other and the place we call home? Using a beautiful, screen-printed tent as a gathering place, artists Elizabeth Jabar and Colleen Kinsella brought artists and community members of all ages together to explore these questions through a series of collaborative workshops and conversations during the summer of 2022. Featuring an array of prints, written works, and portraits, this exhibition represents the individual and collective stories gathered throughout the process and provides a glimpse of the shared hopes, dreams, and ideas for Waterville.

This project is supported in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, and the Maine Arts Commission and realized in partnership with the Colby College Museum of Art and its Lunder Institute for American Art.
