Artist: Meridel Rubenstein
Meridel Rubenstein began her professional career in the early 1970s, evolving from photographer of single photographic images to artist of extended photographic works, multi-media installations, and environmental social practice. Her focus has been on intersections of nature and culture in relationship to ecological and social imbalance. Threads of ancient myth and the status of nature during periods of war have been woven throughout her projects for decades.
Meridel Rubenstein was a visiting associate professor at the School of Art, Design and Media from 2007-2018.
