abstract: 'Salt of the Earth' is a striking monograph, which skillfully captures humanity's impact on the environment. From ground-level perspectives to aerial shots, Barbara Boissevain's unique compositions of industrial salt ponds, accentuate the surreal qualities of landscapes altered by human activity. The artist's intention extends beyond crafting captivating visuals; her work seeks to raise awareness of pressing environmental concerns and inspire engagement in conservation- related activism. Boissevain's photographs of otherworldly landscapes compel us to reflect on the delicate balance between creation and devastation. Her powerful imagery challenges viewers to reassess their role in shaping Earth's future, ultimately urging us to confront the consequences of our actions and actively participate in preserving the environment for generations to come.
