Suzanne Revy: A Murmur in the Trees

Close observation reveals remnants of the man-made in A Murmur in the Trees, but the works primarily capture how we move through and experience the changing landscape.

The changing of the seasons is a part of life in New England. Turning her camera to the landscape represented a similar change for Suzanne Révy, whose work shifted focus when she started recording her walks through the woods six years ago.  Centuries of history are mapped through these works, from the indigenous populations who named the area around the confluence of the Assabet and Sudbury Rivers, to the echoes of the American Revolution that permeate the land between Lexington and Concord, to the woods made famous by nineteenth-century Transcendentalists. Révy notes how the weight of history is palpable as she discovers patterns and details in her photographs—works already infused with her personal memory.
