Ghosts of a green Sahara

Eight thousand years ago, a fertile land supporting human, animal, and plant life was transformed into a wholly mineral landscape of dust, rock, and sand. Ghosts of a Green Sahara examines the traces of this once-green land through the geological, geographical, and historical phenomena that remain in the Sahara Desert today. These black and white photographs allude to imperceptible forces that exist outside of human experience: suggesting that change is constant, whether we can perceive it or not.
