Crafty Green Poet
- Environmental poetry, reviews and opinions. Plus ideas for crafts
made from reused materials. All by Juliet Wilson. An example
- "Nothing ends - all transforms,/ changes direction like a river
bends./ Day becomes night, bodies decompose/ to feed roses, freeing
spirits to roam./ When the earth dies (whether at our hands / or after
peaceful millenia orbiting a dying star) / atoms from Amazonian rainforests
/ will become part of some magnificent beings / we cannot imagine
on a helium atmosphered planet / so far away it seems beyond / the
end of space". Good links to eco and poetry sites......http://craftygreenpoet.blogspot.com/ |

| Martin
Hill is an internationally recognised communications designer,
environmental artist, and photographer. His design work has won awards
and is featured in international galleries. His environmental sculpture
photographs have been published on cards, posters, calendars and books
since 1995. "In 1992 I became so concerned about products causing
environmental damage because of their unsustainable design that I
turned my focus to understanding and communicating about solutions
to these design issues .... The use of the circle refers to nature's
cyclical system which is now being used as a model for industrial
ecology... redesigning products and industrial processes as closed
loops - materials that can't safely be retuned to nature will be continually
turned into new products..." .An extremely well designed and
visually pleasing site (as one should expect) with photographs for
sale online...http://www.martin-hill.com/ |

Mark
Fischer - the Shape of the Sound - digital signals from whales,
dolphins and a variety of birds are processed to make visual art,
many in the form of 'mandalas' or symmetrical circular patterns onto
paper or aluminium. "My art explores subtlety and nuance in sound,
mostly with the sounds of cetaceans and birds. While doing so sometimes
I encounter other fun things...". A most unusual site of beautiful
images that are hard to classify - photography, painting, digital
art ?... http://www.aguasonic.com/Art

Nita
Winter and Bob Badger - Nita Winter's photographic passion began
during her senior year at Clark University where she earned a degree
in biology. In 1976 Nita moved to San Francisco and began to document
her work fighting fires and leading tours on Alcatraz Island while
working for the National Parks Service. In her words: "I thoroughly
enjoy recording candid moments in people's lives, especially those
of children. For 40 years.
Rob Badger, an environmental activist, instructor, lecturer
and photographer, has recorded the beauty of the earth and its accelerating
destruction. His mastery of light and color, and his ability to
emotionally portray the essence of a place in time, has won him
international awards for his Antarctica series, and “Best in Journalism”
for his evocative environmental photography, work that is simultaneously
beautiful and disturbing.,

Earth
from Above - Yann Arthus-Bertrand - A
series of stunning aerial photographs from around the world published
as a best-selling book whose excellent text describes the ecological
significance of the images. The captions to the pictures he has
taken over many years are a frightening commentary on the ways in
which the environment is being degraded and the world is suffering
from pollution and over expoitation. The beauty of the pictures
is in stark contrast to the awful consequences of human destruction
- see the pictures from the Middle East countries. A site to linger
over for hours...http://www.yannarthusbertrand.com/

Pradignac - This is the personal site of a French photographer
- very nicely designed and visual, so universally comprehensible.
His subjects are the people, animals, landscapes and townscapes of
the region where he lives and works - Limousin and Poitou/Charentes.
His works are in black and white and he extracts the poetry of the
subjects with suberb technical skill and presentation... http://francois.pradignac.free.fr/quartz |

and beautiful nudes. He uses green practices in his darkroom and studio,
and tries to offer imagery conducive to reflection and inspiration...

| MUSE
The Museum of Universal Self Expression is a non-profit arts and social
service organization. They provide a studio where a psychiatric survivor
may discover and develop his or her own creative path. They provide
a place where art making is practiced for personal growth and healing,
communication, relaxation, and to bring about social change by eliminating
the stigma associated with mental illness. By providing creative enrichment
opportunities MUSE contributes to the arts with a variety of possibilities
for the Chicago mental health community and beyond. Diane Green writes
"I continuously see mental health comsumers freeing themselves
from a corporate drug snare with their arts". A site hard
to classify but worth including for its aims fall into the realm of
mental health ecology (def. Gregory Bateson)...http://www.callmecrazy.org/ |
