Summary:
This is a publication about seeing versus not seeing, about gender, class and climate, a work about representation and reproduction. In short, a vehicle for perception and togetherness. After leaving an artist in residence in Japan spring 2019 and being back in Amsterdam Markus felt the need for silence and contemplation. Intuitively she built a studio setting in the forest and a photographic process began. It started with a found tarpaulin; the same kind of blue tarp that is a common sight in Japan and if one looks closer most often a shelter for someone homeless appears.

Summary:
"Landscapes of retreat" explores climate adaptation through portraits of land left behind as settlement patterns shift with a changing climate. Here, "landscape" refers to the earth alive with creatures and organisms, while "retreat" suggests human patterns are fluid and adaptable. Featuring field studies from Nijinomatsubara Forest (Japan), Maule River (Chile), Niugtaq Village (Alaska), Langtang Park (Nepal), and Gaspésie Peninsula (Québec), the stories emphasize that valuing landscapes fosters community resilience. Cutting across history, fieldwork, and geography, "Landscapes of retreat" rethinks "change" as a shared pathway toward adaptive, collaborative climate futures. Winner of the 2024 J.B. Jackson Book Award from the Landscape Studies Initiative at the University of Virginia.
