 It is my absolute honour to share WAPG's newest interview with the inspiring Kari Varner. Kari's work uses the unique process of growing algae to create images of Tyson chicken plants. This work draws attention to the damage that is taking place in these vulnerable ecosystems.
The interview is now live on the Women Alternative Photography Group website. https://womenaltphotogroup.com/2024/10/25/from-nature-kari-varner-creates-images-of-tyson-chicken-plants-by-growing-algae/
