Miranda Lichtenstein

Miranda Lichtenstein Work from her oeuvre. “Searching, misrepresentation, failure, and our troubled relationship to the natural world are components of my work. For this reason, living at Monet’s garden on a residency in Giverny a number of years ago had a tremendous impact on me. Recognizing the garden as a giant tableaux staged by a […]

Robin Schwartz

Robin Schwartz Work from Amelia’s World. “My photographs are drawn from real journeys undertaken with my daughter, Amelia. I am driven to depict relationships with animals but the photographs are not documents; they are evidence of the invented worlds that we explore and the fables we enact together.

Peter Happel Christian

Peter Happel Christian Work from Weights and Measures. “Weights & Measures is a non-linear exploration of social relationships with the natural world.
