2026 Chico Attendees Series

Photographer Chris Muth joins Michael Chovan-Dalton from the 2026 Chico Review to talk about his landscape work and processing the varying critiques he received.

My name is Chris Muth. I have been a photographer for over 12 years, exploring many different styles and disciplines within the medium, as you may be able to tell. I received my education in filmmaking, and have been photographing, originally, as a way to practice cinematography without a crew and equipment. It has now taken over my creative interest, really since I went to college.

For the past few years, I have focused on the land around me, trying to find something within it that I cannot find through other photographic work about the subject. I have been working on a project titled Everywhere You Have Ever Been for about 5 years now, and am going to complete it before this next spring. This project is concerned with exploring our connection to the natural world by exploring the hostility between us. This website will serve as a constantly evolving catalog of that project, as well as a showcase of my previous commercial and creative work.

Feel free to contact me for any freelance opportunities, I am open for business! I would love to assist on any projects, and help support a vision!
