Organization / Position: Photographer and Educator
Carlan Tapp is a photographer and educator dedicated to documenting the social and environmental issues that define our times, specifically social justice, environmental and health themes. He uses his camera to look at the world striving to tell stories of the twenty-first century. A sensitive eye and an intimate relationship to his subjects are the signatures of his work, which has been published, collected and recognized around the world. In 2005 he established a Federal (501c3) non-profit project Question of Power. The project tells human stories of individuals, families and communities—stories of unheard voices affected by the extraction, production, consumption and waste materials of coal in the creation of electricity for America.
