The photographer Fazal Sheikh, Princeton
University ’87 and former visiting professor, will deliver the Art Museum Student Advisory Board’s
annual artist talk.
Sheikh has spent his career photographing individuals
and communities displaced by conflict and environmental change.
Acclaimed for his intimate portraits, Sheikh collaborates closely
with his subjects to better understand and share their stories. In
this talk, he will discuss his newest body of work, Exposure
(2017–22). To make Exposure, set in the American
Southwest, Sheikh worked closely with Utah Diné Bikéyah, a Native
American grassroots organization, to examine the human and
environmental costs of the exploitation of public lands. The
expansive landscapes seen in the series pay homage to the spiritual
significance of the land, while portraits and collected testimonies
reveal the ongoing but often invisible effects of environmental
racism, especially on Indigenous inhabitants.
