Through progress, man created language and art, cultivated agriculture, and developed the ability to form complex social organizations. The innovations and ideologies that successively take us further into our development have placed us at a crossroad where our progressive course threatens the sustainability.</p><p>My interest lies in the examination of the developments throughout civilization and the scientific evidence of unsustainable archetypes. By examining the histories of religion, science, and technology, within a social, economic, and environmental framework, the cause and effect relationships of these structures become apparent.</p><p>The photographs in my thesis exhibition "Down The Garden Path" were created in response to this research. These images are not statements directed at the viewer but as a means of conversation. Through an air of playfulness and a sense of mystery, the suit wearing birds, egg eating rats, and worm gathering workers are placed together into constructed photographs that invite viewers into an exploration of the world around them.</p> 2006 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1328895987 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1328895987 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
