Over a 30-year period, Linda Adele Goodine 鈥80 has developed a national and international reputation for her performative photography鈥攚ork that draws on her training not only in photography, but also in installation art, dance, video, and sound art.

Goodine has been awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to India to complete a photographic series exploring the tension between modern land and water use and ancient culture and tradition.

Over a two-year period, Goodine will record in still photography, sound, and video the transition from the dry season to the monsoon season at the junction of the Alaknanda and Bhagirathi Rivers.

Her latest project flows naturally out of previous bodies of work reflecting on the manipulation of the natural environment in the service of commerce. Works such as The Baler (above, right), carried out in New Zealand, explored 鈥渢he remaking of the contemporary material world through the metaphor of sustainable farming.鈥 Perigee Moon (top) was part of a series recording environmental change in the Florida Everglades that Goodine鈥攊nvoking Henry David Thoreau鈥攕ays has resulted in 鈥渁n erosion of modern man鈥檚 fantasy and search for an ideal nature.鈥

Goodine, who studied with the late photographer Roger Mertin at Rochester, spent 25 years at Indiana University/Purdue University鈥檚 Herron School of Art and Design鈥攚here she last held the title Chancellor鈥檚 Professor of Art鈥攂efore being named the Carol Grotnes Belk Distinguished Professor at East Carolina University鈥檚 School of Art and Design in 2015.
