Listening to the Land: Reimagining the Bartram Trail
Listening to the Land: Reimagining the Bartram Trail
September 9th, 2022 - January 6th, 2023
Opening Reception October 5th @ 5 pm EST
The Bascom: A Center for the Visual Arts, Highlands, North Carolina
Beginning in January 2023, the photographers featured in this exhibition were invited to explore and reflect upon 112-miles of the Blue Ridge Bartram Trail. Listening to the Land features photography and photo-based installations by thirty-two artists and celebrates this region’s rich biodiversity while honoring each person’s unique and emergent relationship with the land.
Drawing inspiration from the trail itself, photographers were invited to enter an intimate world where the landscape was alive and waiting to be met, understood, and listened to. Together these artists contemplated their own wild origins while visually reimagining a time when humans moved in respect, harmony, and co-creative kinship with the natural world
