Research into trauma experienced during the American Civil War

Hello,

My name is Erin Solomons, and I'm pursuing a PhD (practice-based) in Photography at UCA. My project is about how trauma is experienced and remembered in the present. One of my case studies is from the American Civil War period. By using the wet collodion process, which documented the War, I'm experimenting with opening up a discussion about trauma, the body, and landscape. Older works, I've made, have dealt with identity, domesticity, and the American West. My work can be viewed at:

Best wishes,

Erin
