Portrait by Juliette Lynch

Barbara Bosworth is a photographer whose large-format images explore both overt and subtle relationships between humans and the natural world.

Whether chronicling the efforts of hunters or bird banders or evoking the seasonal changes that transform mountains and meadows, Bosworth’s caring attention to the world around her results in images that inspire viewers to look closely. Her single images display generous attention to detail, while her large-scale triptychs offer a panoramic perspective. All of Bosworth’s projects remind viewers that we shape nature and, in turn, are shaped by it. 

Bosworth grew up in Novelty, Ohio. She currently lives in Massachusetts, where she is a professor emeritus of photography at the Massachusetts College of Art and Design in Boston.

Bosworth’s work has been widely exhibited, notably in exhibitions at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, Cleveland Museum of Art, Denver Art Museum, and Peabody Essex Museum.

Her publications include Some Lights Are From Fires (Dust Collective, 2024), The Sea (Radius Books, 2022), One Star and a Dark Voyage (TIS Books, 2021), The Meadow (Radius Books, 2015), Behold (Datz Press, 2014), and Trees: National Champions (MIT Press; Center for Creative Photography, University of Arizona, 2005).
