Tour the @metmuseum.org‬ "Superfine" exhibit with Executive Editor @ccberg.bsky.social‬ and curator Monica Miller: buff.ly/mYXNG7k
A white woman with short white hair, wearing jeans and a casual top stands next to a Black woman with chin length hair in a black polka dot dress and black cardigan. The word Superfine appears in script on the wall behind them.

"How the Earth Feels" by @danaluci.bsky.social examines how the impacts of geology on 19th-century US culture catalyzed transformative conversations about the intersections between humans & the nonhuman world. Read the introduction for free now: ow.ly/QLU250Q5vln
Cover of How the Earth Feels: Geological Fantasy in the Nineteenth-Century United States by Dana Luciano. Cover is a landscape painting. An individual and an alpaca walk in the foreground of the painting underneath tall, green trees. A river runs through the landscape before flowing into a waterfall over a rugged cliff. Black smoke plumes into a large, orange-hued cloud as a volcano erupts in the background.
