Return to the Field began as an invitation to consider questions of environment, affect, and mapping emotional and physical points of contact between the human and the landscape alongside visual artist Martha Tuttle and her collaborator and co-editor, poet Gabriel Kruis. Including drawings, poems, photography, sonic maps, and an experimental digital project by Esteban Cabeza de Baca, Adjua Gargi Nzinga Greaves, David Johnson, Suzanne Kite, Charmaine Lee, Philip Matthews, Nat Ward, and Sara J. Winston, Return to the Field assembles a dense and resonant, multi-vocal conversation threaded together by Kruis’ book-length poem, “A Connectome.”

 

Return to the Field is published on the occasion of Martha Tuttle's exhibition and sculptural installation, A stone that thinks of Enceladus, on view at Storm King Art Center (New Windsor, New York) from July 15, 2020 through November 8, 2021.
