This body of work, however, directs our attention to a small section of the landscape: to the entwined systems of vast agricultural production and the waste it creates. The photographs reveal scenes that are literally hidden from public view and knowledge, underscoring their nature as evidentiary documentation: a microcosm with ramifications far beyond its geographical boundaries. Kallusky's interest does not end there, for his depiction of this famous Central California landscape creates an opportunity for contemplative reflection of our complicit involvement, if only by eating the strawberries, carrots, and cauliflower that is grown here and transported to grocery stores throughout the U.S. Thus, despite the cool formalism and detached documentary style of the pictures, assembled together as they are in this book, they engage in an extended consideration, drawing viewers into a new relationship with this place. Addressing the current, human-centered epoch known as the Anthropocene, the quiet but powerful imagery of Kallusky's 'Landfill' examines important questions of how the land is used and regarded. The landscape reveals who we are, as he brings these invisible spaces into visibility, showing how the earth supports our food needs on a massive scale, fueling a massive engine of consumption. What is left in the wake of that system to which we all belong? 600 10 $a Kallusky, Brett. 650 0 $a Photography, Agricultural $z Santa Maria Valley American Viticultural Area. $z Santa Maria Valley American Viticultural Area. 650 0 $a Agricultural wastes $z Santa Maria Valley American Viticultural Area $z Santa Maria Valley American Viticultural Area $v Pictorial works. 650 7 $a Agricultural wastes. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00801342 650 7 $a Photography, Agricultural. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01061963 651 7 $a California $z Santa Maria Valley American Viticultural Area. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02019991 655 7 $a Illustrated works. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Coolidge, Matthew, $e contributor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117024552.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A611DDEE38A911ED914067003BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
