Interdisciplinary Modernisms Workshop: William Wiley

“To Throw a Shadow” 

This workshop will focus on the physical and temporal aspects of landscapes. Wylie is motivated by an interest in particular places, and his projects dig beneath the surface to investigate our consumption of space and our movement through it. He will discuss several individuals who have integrated perambulating into their work, as well as his own ideas on why photography and walking go together so well. 

William Wylie’s photographs, films and works on paper have been shown both nationally and internationally and are in the permanent collections of multiple museums. He has published six books and his forthcoming book, The Eighty-Eight, a collection of his photographs made on pilgrimage in Japan, will be published by GFT Press in spring 2026.
