#notjustprettypictures
I work on long-term visual projects focusing on the climate emergency, climate breakdown and global heating. This is the second series in a body of work on climate change and the human condition. Within the theme and framework, Elements of Nature, I investigate changes in natural environments and our human relationship with nature.
These bodies of work focus on ever-changing landscapes and cityscapes and the effects of climate change and human activity. In my long-term photographic work, I investigate the human impact on the environment.
The landscapes and urban spaces I photograph are fragile and influenced by weather patterns and the elements. Most locations in these images, especially in the two-landscape series created in Namibia and Iceland, are remote and inhospitable due to climate or challenges due to the environment.
I am not a climatologist, scientist, or a specialist on the environment , but I am curious and learning as I continue the documentation on these topics. By continuing my visual work within the framework and delving deeper into the issues affecting the environment, researching global climate change and the climate emergency, I will define the concept and idea and create a body of work that studies and comments on climate breakdown and global heating.
As the bodies of work develop, I hope to focus on solutions-based projects and stories and images that drive change. I enjoy working on slow multimedia and photography projects that are inspirational and educational.
I want to learn more about how these remote and fragile landscapes, desert-scapes, icescapes, and sub-artic landscapes are changed and influenced by human activities. I am also interested in learning about innovative sustainable ideas implemented to fight the effects of climate breakdown.
