Sharon Harper

Sharon Harper works with photography and video to record a subjective experience of landscape, exploring ways that technology mediates our relationship with the natural world and generates perceptual experiences. Her work was the subject of a solo exhibition, “Sharon Harper: Photographs from the Floating World,” at the Whitney Museum of American Art in 2001.


Harper has had numerous solo exhibitions and her work was included in shows at PS1, New York, Center for Curatorial Studies, Bard College, New York, Oxford University Museum of Natural History, Oxford, Work Space Gallery, New York, Weatherspoon Art Museum, and smART gallery in Munich, Germany. In 2014 Harper was a recipient of the John Simon Guggenhmein Memorial Fellowship Award. She is currently a Professor of Visual and Environmental Studies at Harvard University.
