The Farmland Values Project is a USDA-funded, interdisciplinary project collaboratively undertaken
by the University of North Carolina at Asheville and Appalachian
State University. The project will be represented by an audio-visual
public installation and website that explores the cultural, economic,
environmental and scenic value of farmland.
As the commissioned
artist for the project, I will compile research done by Economic,
Sociology, and Geographic Information Systems departments and present
it to the public and academic community in the form of an audio-visual
kiosk and website. The final product will be used as an educational
tool for the public as well as policy-makers on the value of farmland.
