Victoria Sambunaris @ Women in Photography

Head over to WIPNYC.ORG to see the work of Victoria Sambunaris.

Victoria Sambunaris @ Yancey Richardson Gallery

I happened to catch Victoria Sambunaris' show Yet All Remains, which explores the intersection of civilization, geology and natural history particular to the United States. Sambunaris drove 11,000 miles through the US over 12 weeks to "the relationship between man, nature and evolution". I liked her work and the sense of "manifest destiny" that it evoked.
