SSHRC IDG Awarded 2018: This research-creation project asks “What is a contemporary landscape?” Building on cultural geographers' insights that the natural environment provides a setting for cultural processes and belief systems, we will explore the history of ideas and images in traditional Chinese Daoist Shan Shui ink and brush images along with Western romantic landscape paintings that are rooted in Kant’s idea of the ‘sublime.’ We will create a collaborative body of artworks, harnessing and interweaving the material processes of these two distinct intellectual and artistic traditions to interrogate the Anthropocene present in both China and Canada.
