Western Humanities Review

The Western Humanities Review Spring 2018, Volume 72.1 features photographs from the “Grassy Woodlands” series, and text about my collaborative method with ecologist Dr Sue McIntyre. A central feature of this issue is a substantial portfolio of Australian prose poetry, providing a very fine glimpse into the breadth of Australian writing.

Michael Mejia in his Editor’s Note writes, “Further to articulating the notion of the close look in this issue is the accompanying portfolio of photographs by Australian artist Carolyn Young, whose work performs a scientifically-informed inquiry into the long-term effects of European colonization on eastern Australian grasslands, the overwriting of millennia of indigenous stewardship. Young’s work, elegantly engaging both the intimate and the objective, is as interested in how we see as in what is seen, keeping us mindful of the impressions of bodies, past and present, on her still lifes and landscapes.”
