Victoria Sambunaris: Altered Lands

Sep 13, 2026–May 2, 2027
The Westmoreland Museum of American Art

Silver Eye has partnered with The Westmoreland Museum of American Art in Greensburg to curate Victoria Sambunaris: Altered Lands, on view at the museum from September 13, 2026–May 2, 2027.

For more than 25 years, Victoria Sambunaris has traveled across the United States photographing landscapes shaped by our incursions into the natural world. Equipped with a large format field camera and color negative film, she spends weeks researching and revisiting locations before making a single exposure. Her methodical process is driven, as she describes it, by a fascination with “how we inhabit our landscapes and what they become as we forge ahead.”

Presented in dialogue with Ansel Adams: Majestic Lands, this exhibition extends the American landscape tradition into the 21st century, asking visitors to reconsider how we think about landscapes today.

The Westmoreland Museum of American Art is located at 221 N Main St., Greensburg, PA 15601
