Roberts-Goodwin's work navigates terrestrial atmospheric impacts & experience. With engagement at remote sites & creative undertakings grounded in initial fieldwork over the last 40 years, Roberts-Goodwin has undertaken her projects within remote terrains, documenting how ecological systems & cultural traces are reshaping our experience.
Through undertakings within contested territories of environmental change (Dead Sea, Jordan), endangered species (Vultures, Mumbai, India), deforestation (Akumal Cenotes, Mexico), sa It mining extractions (Turkey Lake Tuz & Western Australia, Pi Ibara), calderas (Phlegraean Fields, Bay of Naples Italy & Kilauea, Big Island, Hawai'i), Roberts-Goodwin's images are at times simultaneously sublime & terrifying, chronicling the insatiable demand for finite resources & rapidly accelerating displaced landscapes.
