Vastness

Project Type

Aerial Photography

Date

2024

Role

Artist / Aerial Photographer / Commercial UAS Operator

Vastness is a collage of time-based aerial photographs inspired by changes in climate and extreme weather’s effect on earth’s ecosystems. The border-less collage of images gleans the beauty of the heavens and the passing squall on the horizon is full of energy and moisture. Viewing from the side we can observe, calculate and imagine how many miles into the atmosphere the squall towers.
This helps me to consider the consequences of disrupting the balance of natures' weather and its impact. Viewed at a distance, Vastness becomes abstract, an example of humanities abstraction of nature. While we become more removed from our natural environments, there is a disconnect in our understanding of what is “good” for our ecosystems and what is “bad” and what is already gone.
