ABOUT THE WORK

 

Title: From Altered Light, 2017, collage

 

From Altered Light collages images from a mid-twentieth century science journal and a mass-produced nature book. Juxtaposing manipulated inversions of a solar eclipse and a wildcat, the work explores how scientific and nature documentary imagery have impacted our understanding of the world.
