Betty Beaumont (born January 8, 1946) is a Canadian-American site-specific and conceptual installation artist, sculptor, and photographer. She is an internationally recognized artist known to explore cross-disciplinary media, interweaving the environmental, social, economic, political, and the architectural. Beaumont lives and works in New York City.
Beaumont's diverse body of work challenges global social awareness, as well as socioeconomic[1] and ecological practices.[2] Beaumont is involved with investigating solution-based sustainability strategies[3] that reflect contemporary, historic, and cultural perspectives and environmental and social conditions.[4]
One of Beaumont's most notable works is the environmental installation Ocean Landmark (1978-1980), a grand-scale underwater project. The installation consists of 17,000 neutralized coal fly-ash blocks strategically submerged three miles off Fire Island National Seashore to lay on the floor of the Atlantic Ocean, creating an artificial habitat for marine life.[5][6]
