Current practices of eco-conscious photography, informed by the ongoing climate crisis and post-humanist theory, share characteristics such as collectivity, co-creation, and pro- cess orientation. By way of examples from the UK and the Nordic region, we investigate how these aspects are made (in)visible within the framework of photographic institu- tions: artist-led organizations, photographic festivals, exhibitions, and museums. We ask what implications can, or even should, eco-conscious photography have for the ways researchers, curators and institutions think about and engage with photography, both as an image and a practice.
