Amelia DiGiano has photographed incarcerated mothers in the Montana Women’s Prison, unhoused workers at one of the largest homeless encampments in the west, and Ladakhi students fighting to save the rapidly receding glaciers of northern India. Her current photographic work examines the emotional impact of climate change in a time of global political and ecological uncertainty.
DiGiano’s work has appeared in Earth Island Journal, Yellowstone Valley Woman Magazine, and Curiositas Undergraduate Research Journal. She is the co-founder of Flare Journal, the first photography journal dedicated exclusively to the climate crisis. Her series Portraits of a Planet in Crisis was the featured project at Graphite Arts Center’s Summer 2025 exhibit, Seeing Our Planet. DiGiano is the recipient of the Graphite Arts Center Curator’s Choice Award and several undergraduate research grants from Montana State University. She is also the recipient of the 2024 Mirrielees Prize for Creative Writing. DiGiano holds a B.F.A. in film and photography from Montana State University. She currently lives in Burlington, Vermont, and reports on local-level climate policy for Run on Climate.
