Course description
Integrating art history, research-based artistic production, theory, science, and environmental studies, the aim of this course is to critically and actively explore the historic and contemporary interplay between photography and environmental history; technology, pollution, waste, and destruction; the shifting composition, structure, and function of landscape; cultural constructions of nature and environmental perceptions; environmental justice; histories of conservation; land use; politics and policy; and, the role of photography in responding to how humans interpret, create, and have an impact on land patterns and processes.
