Wendy Johnson Costa is an artist living in the northwest corner of Connecticut. She is a fierce advocate for the Earth, and uses her infrared photography to bring attention to its beauty and fragile state. She presents nature as a force to be revered, while at the same time hints at signs of nature falling prey to our accelerating climate crisis.
