"Caspian: The Elements" is a new exhibit featuring the evocative
imagery of Chloe Dewe Mathews, the 2014 recipient of the Peabody
Museum's Robert Gardner Fellowship in Photography. The exhibit
documents her extraordinary five-year journey through the contested
borderlands of the Caspian Sea, and reveals the essential role played
by elemental materials like oil, rock, and uranium in the practical,
artistic, spiritual, and therapeutic aspects of daily life. Caspian:
The Elements is a powerful photographic narrative that explores the
deep links between the peoples of the Caspian and their enigmatic and
coveted landscapes. The exhibition will remain on view through Feb.
17, 2020. See exhibition-related lecture by Chloe Dewe Mathews on
