Can you (we) save the world by looking? 

The idea of wilderness – land uncultivated and uninhabited by human beings – raises questions about how much truly natural land is left in a world that values the production of goods over people and the land. Through collage and digital montage of our photographs of agriculture, land-management, resource extraction sites, utilities infrastructure, the aftermath of forest fires, icebergs, development sites, refuse, development, and destruction, we open up our individual practices to collective thought and authorship through creative play and collaboration used to create this new body of work.

The language of hope and despair is woven into this work through screen printed text and images. The camera is a tool of agency and the collaborative process a de-centering of individual artist authorship to prioritize our explorations and the invitation for slow looking.

Here, in Wyndham’s 3rd Floor Gallery, “The Landscape is Dead” reflects the intersection of the landscape and the built environment for contemplation, to illuminate the complex and troubling questions about human impacts on the natural world.
