Announcing the Finalists for Ecologies: The 3rd Triennial

Ecologies #3: The Third Triennial of Staten Island Photography

The Alice Austen House is proud to announce the selected photographers for Ecologies #3—the third triennial of Staten Island photography. This year, we asked participants to submit work on the theme of ecology—the study of the relationships between living things and their changing environments. Looking through the lens of Staten Island residents and outsiders documenting the borough, this juried exhibition will explore contemporary themes and narratives that begin to reveal our evolving responses to the rapidly changing social and natural environment in this complex borough. The judges were faced with a number of outstanding submissions, and with careful deliberation, dedication, and passionate discussion, we are proud to present the chosen artists to be exhibited in the contemporary galleries of the Alice Austen House starting March 4th:
