Field

 

Field is an exploration of the way that technology mediates our experience of the world. Drawing on the work of artists such as Peter Funch / Ed Burtynsky / Andreas Gursky /  Richard long / Robert Smithson/ Michael Heizer and Nancy Holt, the series explores the relationship between the natural world and human-made structures.

In a globalised world, the material nature of land loses its relevance  as our methods of communication transcend physical travel / physical borders. Photography mirrors the condition of our contemporary material experience in the face of the very real crisi of a disappearing material culture and the emergence of a pixelated, globalised, technologically conditioned experience.
