Showcasing California's Central Valley, Westlands uses documentary
photography to examine the danger drought and water policies
represent to farming. The valley has been a productive food-growing
region for decades, but water shortages and complicated laws have
placed the region's farms-and subsequently its communities and
culture-in precarious conditions. Moving beyond simplified
narratives of environmentalist versus farmer or government versus
worker, Westlands reveals the complex story of fragile ecosystems,
a growing population, and the need for social responsibility and
sustainable solutions. The lessons suggested in these breathtaking
photographs apply not just to California but to worldwide
conversations about water usage and rights.
