ABSTRACT

“Mapping the Invisible Landscape” by Kent C. Ryden is a book about the ethereal features of landscape that shape our experience of physical place. He talks about unique cognitive maps created by people’s minds that develop into our personal reality. This portfolio is a challenge to explore and re-examine familiar landscapes and re-evaluate our relationship to our surroundings. It is also a call to celebrate the history of our environment while facing our history’s visual presence being wiped away with overwhelming speed by new developments and morphing neighborhoods. The portfolio will be exhibited at the Morgan Conservatory in Cleveland, OH and donated to the Morgan Conservatory’s Archive.
