The Sublime in the Mundane: Human Encroachment in the Natural Landscape

As I become increasingly aware of anthropogenic environmental destruction, I find myself drawn to nature. It is in nature, in the intertwining body of roots and branches, air and light, that I find comfort amid the stresses of human life. Nature is pure. It is awe-inspiring. It is sublime.

Program cancelled—Artist Lecture by Regina DeLuise

graham auditorium | hillyer hall

Photographer Regina DeLuise is committed to an immersive experience of place. As an artist, she has spent a lifetime leaning towards what is unknown in order to create space for direct experience. Her work is formal in approach and springs from a place of inquiry. Utilizing film and a large format, 8x10 view camera, compels her to move slowly and interpret her surroundings at a pace that is in opposition to our culture’s spinning clock.
