Ecological Memory: Archiving Offshore

Words & Images by Nadia Huggins

Born in Trinidad and Tobago and raised in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, artist Nadia Huggins engages photography to create unconventional images to draw attention to the changing nature of the landscapes she’s been immersed in all her life. Contrary to the popular assumption that the landscape photograph is necessarily terrestrial, Huggins’s singularly poetic approach to documentary reframes underwater spaces to shift our perspective on our environment, and thereby our relationship to the planet’s ecosystems. This visual essay, commissioned for our pages, considers the multitude of Caribbean landscapes and the lifeforms that comprise them, just beyond the surface of the sea.

Vol. 1

The first printed volume of "revisions", an experimental media initiative of the Public Discourse program at re:arc institute, entwines knowledge systems, perspectives, and values that make up the speculative framework for architectures of planetary well-being. With the intent to explore the relational connections between our social and ecological systems, as well as to commune across and beyond disciplinary boundaries, we invite individuals from a diverse array of practices and geographies to contemplate entries into a concept of planetary; the meaning, measures, and markers of well-being; the expansiveness of architecture(s) as a theoretical scaffolding; and the urgency of plurality when listening and learning through emergent discourse.
