Land : photographs that make you think

Carroll, Henry2022
Book
Land: Photographs That Make You Think considers humanity's changing relationship with the natural world, a relationship that has seen us edge further away from real encounters. The photographs explore how the sublime can be commodified, packaged, and distributed, leading to an alarming emotional distancing. With images from a diverse group of photographers, Carroll explores the impermanence of borders, the human reaction to scenes of devastation on Instagram feeds, and the many variables that inform one's relationship to land. He considers how a photographer's response to landscape is subjective, full of meaning that's coloured by their own psyches, foibles, fears, and hopes. With captivating and striking photography, Carroll invites the reader to contemplate how their inner world influences their interactions with the natural world." -- Provided by publisher.
