In celebration of the 10th anniversary of Sheography!

“Sacred Spaces” illuminates the deep connections between women of Sheography and the natural world within the United States. Through a carefully curated selection of 34 photographic prints from 17 Sheography photography workshop alumna from across the United States, this exhibition will convey the beauty, resilience, power, fragility, and tranquility of the outdoor environments that hold personal, historical, and cultural meaning. Through our individual lenses, Sheographers will come together to share how these meaningful spaces of all sizes (from landscapes to details) shape our identity; celebrate nature as a source of our strength, introspection, healing, and inspiration; and convey our collective reverence for wild places.

“Sacred Spaces” will encourage mindful engagement with a diversity of natural environments and emphasize the ever-present need to preserve the spaces that matter most to us. In doing so, we hope to elevate discussions about what “sacred” means (personally, spiritually, and communally) and encourage community stewardship in cherishing and protecting our local and national public lands. We also aim to evoke peace, awe, wonder, beauty, and joy as our world continues to experience grief, disconnection, and social unrest.

The online exhibit will kick off the 10th anniversary events of Sheography. Stay tuned for more details!
