A Landscape Under Threat is a photographic and conceptual study of ecological fragility and political vulnerability across Minnesota’s federally managed lands. These forests, lakes, rivers, and wetlands hold cultural, historical, and environmental significance, yet they face intensifying pressure from extractive industries and deregulated development. Through this project, I use the photographic medium to document, interpret, and critique these forces while foregrounding both aesthetic beauty and environmental urgency.
